The practice of restorative dentistry has changed for many and varied reasons. They include changes in the epidemiology of dental caries due to fluoridation, and availability of new equipment and techniques for cavity preparation and new or improved restorative materials. Changes driven by these 'new' materials frequently do not provide the benefits anticipated. In the context of this paper, it is argued that, regardless of restorative materials and techniques, the biomechanics of intact, prepared and restored teeth must be understood to attain a satisfactory clinical outcome.
由于多种原因，修复牙科的实践已经发生了变化。这些原因包括因氟化作用导致的龋齿流行病学变化，以及用于窝洞制备的新设备和技术的可用性，还有新的或改良的修复材料。由这些“新”材料推动的变化往往无法带来预期的益处。在本文的背景下，有人认为，无论修复材料和技术如何，都必须了解完整牙齿、预备牙齿和修复牙齿的生物力学，以获得令人满意的临床结果。
