Abstract
The shrinkage-strain and contraction rate results for the experimental compomer are as good as those obtained for a commercial flowable compomer and a flowable composite resin. The contraction rates of all compomers could be directly related to polymerization rates. The method used to measure shrinkage-strain and contraction rate is adequate because it simulates conditions in situ. It can be inferred that the contraction rate is directly related to shrinkage-strain.
