Polymerization shrinkage of a composite in a high configuration-factor (C-factor) cavity leads to polymerization shrinkage stress. In the prevention of high polymerization shrinkage stress, a low-shrinking silorane composite (Filtek Silorane, FS, 3M ESPE) was recently marketed. Therefore, we investigated the effect of C-factor (flat surface vs. class-I cavity) and different composite application protocols...
To reduce the effect of stresses due to volumetric shrinkage the authors propose an incremental technique for placing composite restorations.The goal of the method is to reduce the volume of the resin that is polymerized and eliminate a stress singular point in the resin that is positioned at the geometric center of the cavity. This is achieved by a two step type incremental technique. In the first...
