Study Notes
Introduction to Composite Restorations
- A composite is a physical mixture of two or more chemically different materials, with a resin as the matrix in resin composites.
- The composition includes a matrix phase, inorganic filler, silane coupling agent, and photo-initiator.
- Inorganic filler reduces polymerization shrinkage, improves mechanical properties, and provides aesthetic properties such as color and translucency.
- Silane coupling agent provides interfacial bonding between the organic matrix and inorganic filler particles.
- Photo-initiator, such as camphorquinone, is used to polymerize current composites with the help of light.
- Composites can be classified based on filler particle types (homogeneous, heterogeneous, hybrid), polymerization method (self-cured, light-cured, dual-cured), and viscosity (packable, flowable).
- Macrofill, midfill, microfill, hybrid, nanofill, packable, and flowable composites are different types of dental composites, each with their own unique properties and indications.
- Polymerization shrinkage can be compensated through incremental insertion and curing technique, soft-start polymerization, and stress-breaking liners.
- Light curing variables include curing equipment, intensity of light, and staged curing to minimize shrinkage stress.
- Important properties of composites include linear coefficient of thermal expansion, isolation factors, and occlusal factors.
- Composites have advantages such as esthetics, conservative cavity prep, and improved retention, but also have disadvantages such as gap formation and difficulty establishing proximal contour and contact.
- Cavity prep for composite includes outline form, retention form, and resistance form, with beveling of enamel margins to improve bond strength and retention.
