"A dental restoration composite generally contains a photopolymerisable resin matrix, an inorganic filler, additives and colour pigments. Resins are traditionally bis-GMA, TEDMA and TEGDMA type polymers with variable viscosity. The filler consists of very fine particles of different sizes ranging from 0.01 to 50 µm, to enhance the mechanical properties of the composite"
