19
Q

Classification of Composite based on filler particle size:
* Introduced in the late 1970
* Polishable
* Smooth lustrous surface similar to tooth enamel
* Particle size is 0.01 – 0.04µm
* Contains 35-60% inorganic filler by weight
* Wear resistant
* Low modulus of elasticity (allow restoration to flex)
* High resin content results in an increased coefficient of thermal expansion and lower strength.

A

MIcrofill

20
Q

Classification of Composite based on filler particle size:
* Combines the properties of conventional and microfilled
* Contains 75-85% inorganic filler by weight
* Particle size is 0.4 – 1µm
* Physical properties is superior to conventional
* Predominant direct esthetic resin
* Have universal clinical applicability

A

Hybrid

21
Q

Classification of Composite based on filler particle size:
* Materials that are created by introducing
* nanoparticulates (often referred to as filler) into a macroscopic sample material (often referred to as the matrix).
* Nanofill composites contain filler particles that are extremely small (0.005–0.01 µm).

A

Nanofill

22
Q

Classification of Composite based on viscosity:
* More viscous, “thicker, stiffer feel”
* Have filler particle feature that prevents sliding of the filler particle by one another
* Easier restoration of proximal contact
* Similar to the handling of amalgam

A

Packable

23
Q

Classification of Composite based on viscosity:
* Flows into cavity due to lower viscosity
* Have lower filler content
* Inferior physical properties (lower wear resistance, lower strength)
* Used in small class I, pit and fissure sealant, marginal repair, liner
* Easy to use
* Good wettability
* Favorable handling properties

*May result in gap formation when restoration extends to the root surface.
* Technique sensitive.
* Expensive
* May exhibit more occlusal wear in areas of higher
stresses.
* Higher linear coefficient of thermal expansion

33
Q

It releases fluoride, anticariogenic effect ; possess a
favorable coefficient of thermal expansion.
It is also in contrast to silicate cement which has phosphoric acid, glass ionomers use polyacrylic acid, which renders the restoration less soluble.
