“…This conclusion is in accord with that drawn in earlier limited studies of the abrasion resistance of these materials reported by Derand and Ehrnford (1980). The generally superior wear resistance of the microfilled composites as well as their relatively smooth surfacefinish both before and after testing are, most likely, a consequence of the more homogeneous nature of the filler-matrix mixture in these materials.…”

The sliding-wear behavior of a number of commercially available microfilled and light-cured composite restoratives has been investigated and compared with the wear characteristics of conventional composites. The surface profiles of the composite restoratives, both pre- and post-test, have also been examined in order to study material attrition processes. The results indicate that: (1) microfilled composites are significantly more resistant to sliding wear than are restoratives containing conventionally-sized filler particles; (2) light-cured, microfilled composites exhibit a lower rate of sliding wear than do self-curing, microfilled restoratives; and (3) the wear process leads to an increase in surface roughness for all materials tested, but microfilled materials display lower surface roughness values, both before and after sliding-wear tests, than do restoratives containing conventional-sized filler particles.

The marginal fracture toughness of several types of composite resins was determined by means of the rattler test.Microparticle-filled resins showed significantly higher marginal fracture toughness than conventional composites. Posterior restorative composites were intermediate between MFRs and conventional composites.Amalgams were inferior to restorative resins. These data correspond with the clinical findings of restorative materials.
