Abstract

Composite resins have long been the material of choice for Restorative Dentistry ever since their introduction by Dr. R. L. Bowen. There have been various modifications of the resin over the years. The major resin component being the same, modification in the fillers and their quantity have led to a number of variations. Some of the advances are packable composites, flowable composites, self - adhesive composites, Bioactive composites, self - healing composite, plant based composites and fibre - reinforced composites.
