Low polymerization shrinkage resin composite (silorane, ormocer, bulk-fill or other modified-monomer composite) vs Conventional methacrylate-based resin composite
Retention (restoration loss) · People with permanent posterior teeth restored with class I or II direct restorations
At 24 months, retention did not differ significantly between the composites (6 studies; ungraded).
