Silorane composites


Silorane based composites polymerizes as by ring opening monomers connect by opening, flattening and extending towards each other.This results in comparatively less polymerization shrinkage.
Traditional methacrylate based composite cure by actual shifting of linear monomers leading to high polymerization shrinkage.
Benefits of Silorane composites-
*Less than 1%polymerization shrinkage
*Less microlekage
*More compressive and flexural strength
*Less staining
*Less post operative sensitivity
