Study Notes
Posterior Resin Composite Manipulation
- Esthetic restorations are replacing metallic restorations due to increased patient demand, advancements in adhesive and esthetic dentistry, conservation in cavity preparations, and mercury toxicity concerns.
Challenges in Posterior Resin Composite Restoration
- High occlusal stresses
- Proximal wear
- Large cavity size (high C-factor)
- Proximal contact restoration
- Resin composite technique sensitivity
- Resin composite handling difficulties (lack of accessibility)
Successful Restoration Strategies
- Careful patient and material selection
- Conservative cavity design
- Effective isolation for better adaptation
- Optimal wedging and matrixing for proximal contact and marginal ridge reconstruction
- Excellent bonding for perfect marginal and internal fit, preventing postoperative sensitivity
- Accurate resin composite placement to rebuild missing contour
- Long-lasting surface finish and polish for restoration longevity
