Composite - Universal

• Have you had patients complain of a bad taste with composite fillings?
• Are microhybrid composites the best for posterior restorations in terms of strength?
• If a composite has a high modulus of elasticity or a high flexural strength, what exactly does that mean?
• Are there any composites and bonding agents that you know work well together in anterior teeth without producing marginal leakage lines long term?
• Can you advise me on a posterior composite that produces minimal marginal discoloration over time?
• Is there a composite that can be used in all applications so I don't have to buy a separate restorative, flowable, and so on?
• Which type of posterior composite do you recommend based on the physical properties of the material and how well it holds up clinically?
• I know there are pink porcelains, but are there any pink composites for restoring Class V lesions so that they appear as gingival tissue rather than very long teeth?
• What type of composites should I use in direct composite veneering procedures?
• Is it acceptable to repair an existing composite restoration, or should you always replace the entire restoration?
• Are there any posterior composites that you can recommend that do not have the Bis-GMA formula?
• I’m looking for an anterior composite that has excellent esthetics and blends very well with the surrounding tooth structure. Any suggestions?
• I saw the results of your clinical study on 3M ESPE's Filtek Z100. Do you have a similar clinical study on their Z250 composite?
• Do you have any data to show that composites can last as long as amalgams?
• Currrently, I have two restorative composites in my office - one with more shade selection options for anterior restorations and a simpler system for posteriors. Is there one composite system that will work in both situations?
• Kuraray America is known for their excellent bonding agents and resin cements, but do they produce a restorative composite?
• Are there any long-term clinical studies on nano-filled composites?
• Why do my anterior composites appear too dark, even though I am using the lightest shade in my kit?
