Journal ArticleDOI

Progress in dimethacrylate-based dental composite technology and curing efficiency

TL;DR: A review of the key factors affecting the polymerization efficiency of light-activated resin-based composites highlights the apparent need for a more informative approach by manufacturers to relay appropriate information in order to optimize material properties of resin composites used in daily practice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physico-mechanical characteristics of commercially available bulk-fill composites.

TL;DR: A compromise with mechanical properties compared with more conventional commercially-available nano-hybrid materials was demonstrated by the present work, which highlights the critical requirement for a veneering material, not only to improve aesthetic quality of the translucent material, but to reduce the impact of degradation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Refractive Index Mismatch and Monomer Reactivity Influence Composite Curing Depth

TL;DR: Optizing filler/resin refractive index mismatch provides increased curing depth and assists shade-matching and transmission changes and cure depths related to monomer reactivity and filler/ Resin refraction index mismatch with significant interaction are hypothesized.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro cuspal deflection and microleakage of maxillary premolars restored with novel low-shrink dental composites

TL;DR: The reduction in cuspal deflection and decrease in microleakage of cavities restored with H1 compared with Filtek Z250 may be advantageous in terms of marginal integrity following placement and suggest a decrease in the magnitude of polymerisation shrinkage stress at the tooth/restoration interface.
Journal ArticleDOI

The influence of short and medium-term water immersion on the hydrolytic stability of novel low-shrink dental composites.

TL;DR: The decreased water sorption, solubility and associated diffusion coefficient of the experimental silorane RBC, SIL may potentially improve hydrolytic stability of RBC restorations demonstrated by the non-significant decrease in bi-axial flexure strength following medium-term immersion.
