A nonmechanical etiology: The adhesive design concept.
Advances in restorative material formulations and adhesive technology have expanded and created new treatment possibilities for dental practitioners. Due to this evolution, composite resins are being used with increasing frequency in posterior restorations. In order to successfully place these restorations, the clinician must understand the rationale for restorative material selection, preparation design, adhesive protocol, and composite resin placement. This article illustrates these considerations for placing a Class I posterior composite restoration.
