title: Class I composite resin restoration.
abstract: Composite resin materials and methods for their use have improved to the extent that long lasting Class I carious lesions on stress-bearing surfaces can be restored with predictable results. This article demonstrates a step-by-step clinical technique for placement of a Class I composite resin restoration lined with a light-hardened glass-ionomer dentin replacement foundation. Emphasis is placed on tooth isolation, thoughtful handling of the respective materials, and the importance of final sealing of the resin/enamel margins.
