This review article will discuss the origin of resin-based dental composite materials and their adoption as potentially useful adjuncts to the primary material used by most dentists for direct restorations. The evolution of the materials, largely driven by the industry's response to the needs of dentists, has produced materials that are esthetic, strong, and versatile enough to be used in most areas of the oral cavity to replace or restore missing tooth structures. Significant advancements, such as the transition from chemical to light-curing materials, refinements in reinforcing particles to produce optimum polishing and wear resistance, formulating pastes with altered viscosities to create highly flowable and highly stiff materials, and creating materials with enhanced depth of cure to facilitate placement, will be highlighted. Future advancements will likely reflect the movement away from simply being a biocompatible material to one that is designed to produce some type of beneficial effect upon interaction within the oral environment. These new materials have been called "bioactive" by virtue of their potential effects on bacterial biofilms and their ability to promote mineralization of adjacent tooth structures.
这篇综述文章将讨论树脂基牙科复合材料的起源，以及它们作为大多数牙医用于直接修复的主要材料的潜在有用辅助材料的应用情况。材料的发展很大程度上是由行业对牙医需求的回应推动的，已经产生了美观、坚固且用途广泛的材料，足以用于口腔的大多数区域来替代或修复缺失的牙齿结构。将重点介绍一些重大进展，例如从化学固化材料向光固化材料的转变、对增强颗粒的改进以实现最佳抛光和耐磨性、配制具有不同粘度的糊剂以制造高流动性和高硬度的材料，以及制造具有增强固化深度以方便放置的材料。未来的进展可能会反映出从仅仅是一种生物相容性材料向一种旨在在口腔环境中相互作用时产生某种有益效果的材料的转变。这些新材料因其对细菌生物膜的潜在影响以及促进相邻牙齿结构矿化的能力而被称为“生物活性”材料。
