Abstract
Bulk-fill resin composites represent an innovative class of dental composite materials, developed to simplify and expedite the restoration process. They can be adequately photopolymerized up to 4-5mm composite thickness and therefore permit a more economical restorative approach as compared to conventional resin composites. The current paper summarizes the most important facts on bulk-fill composite materials and provides recommendations for the successful use of these materials in daily practice based on upto-date in vitro and in vivo research.
