title: [Preparation forms and filling techniques for posterior composite restorations].
abstract: The operator is a very important factor in achieving high quality posterior composite resin restorations. Specific clinical procedures are required to obtain a clinical successful restoration. Tooth saving preparations are made when primary caries is treated. However, tunnel preparations have major disadvantages. The application of a liner or base under a composite restoration is not required anymore since it does not improve the marginal seal when using an total-etch adhesive. The handling and application of the composite should be done with an injection technique and in layers, whereas low viscous composites are giving the best results in preventing voids.
