| Abstract | ||||
| The frequency of posterior resin composite restorations is increasing due to their aesthetic appeal and conservative nature. However, a balance between material properties and application techniques is crucial for successful restorations. High viscosity resin composites can improve properties but can also cause gaps and microleakage. Preheating resin composites is a technique used to improve flowability, reduce film thickness, and optimize polymerization, but its impact on mechanical properties and clinical performance remains unclear. The frequency of posterior resin composite restorations is increasing due to their aesthetic appeal and conservative nature. However, a balance between material properties and application techniques is crucial for successful restorations. High viscosity resin composites can improve properties but can also cause gaps and microleakage. Preheating resin composites is a technique used to improve flowability, reduce film thickness, and optimize polymerization, but its impact on mechanical properties and clinical performance remains unclear. Conclusion: Preheating resin composites enhances flowability and minimizes gaps formation, but further randomized clinical studies are needed to fully comprehend its applications and limitations in clinical practice. | ||||
