[Long-term results of front teeth restoration using light-curing composite materials].
200 patients (500 restorations of front teeth) were examined. All the restorations were made of light-curing composite materials (microfills, hybrids, compomers, and combination of microfills and hybrids) from 5 do 9 years ago. Clinical and esthetical parameters were evaluated. We had to replace 96 restorations of 500 (19.2%), only 50 (10%) restorations were marked as "excellent". Direct veneers made of microfilled composite materials showed the best results (30%--"excellent" restorations). The restorations of devital teeth and V-class restorations of compomer material show the worse result (20% restorations replaced).
