Newer indirect composite materials offer an esthetic alternative for posterior teeth restorations, overcoming limitations of direct composites. This review examines the material science of advanced indirect resin composites.

Area of Science:

  • Dental Materials Science
  • Restorative Dentistry
  • Biomaterials

Background:

  • Aesthetic dentistry advances with new bonding agents, restorative materials, and conservative techniques.
  • Direct composite restorations in posterior teeth are limited by polymerization stresses in larger cavities.
  • Indirect composites provide an esthetic alternative to ceramics for posterior dental restorations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the material aspects of newer generation indirect composite materials.
  • To evaluate the suitability of indirect composites as an esthetic alternative for posterior teeth.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of peer-reviewed articles published between 1990 and 2010.
  • Search conducted in the PubMed database using keywords: 'indirect resin composites,' 'composite inlays,' and 'fiber-reinforced composites.'
Keywords:
