title: Long-term implications for composite resin restorations.
abstract: This paper examines factors that might influence the future use of composite resin to restore anterior and posterior teeth. Factors considered include recent developments in composite resins and bonding systems, current trends and concerns in the use of composites to restore anterior and posterior teeth, the longevity of composite resin restorations, perceptions about the patient's view of composite restorations, and the implications of two community factors, namely, the fluoride-controlled dentition and the influence of the media.
