Creep of composite resins

ABSTRACT

Creep characteristics of 16 composite resins having three different fillersystems were evaluated under two aging conditions [1 day and 7 days]. Theresults showed a big variation among the creep values obtained. Microfill andhybrid composite have a high creep compared to the fine particles composite. The filler percentage did not correlate with the creep values obtained for fineparticles and hybrid composite, but it had a high negative correlation valuewith microfill composite
