Composition of Dental Composite
The presently available dental composites consist of a polymer
matrix (organic phase), inorganic filler particles (dispersed phase),
a filler-matrix coupling agent (interface), and minor additives
including polymerization initiators, stabilizers and coloring
pigments
Recent improvements have been achieved mainly through the
discovery of organic monomers, modifications in formulation and
filler technology, advances in light curing equipment and the
introduction of efficient photo initiators.

Mechanical Characterization
Compressive Strength Test: The cured
composite specimens (Ø5 mm×6 mm) are
tested in compression mode to measure their
compressive strength (ASTM standard D695-
08). Tests are performed on Universal Testing
machine UTM Instron 1195 using a load rate of
2 N/sec. The compressive strength is calculated
using the equation below:

Wear Characterization
Experimental apparatus and
methodology
The volumetric wear rate of each dental
composite is determined with a Dental
wear simulator (Ducom, Bangalore,
India) as shown in Fig 2. Dental wear
simulator is compatible to conduct tests
according to ASTM F732 test procedure.
Each experiment run is repeated twice
and the average value was reported to get
accuracy.
