Composite resin is a technique sensitive restorative material especially when indicated as direct restoration. The inherent polymerization shrinkage of the material is not the only challenge for the operator but starting by the case selection, passing through the preparation of operatory field up to finishing of the restoration are major challenges also. Manufacturers are competeing in-between them to introduce composite resin materials and recommended different techniques to reduce the material sensitivity to manipulative varialbes and by the way increase their market share and profits of promiting their materials. But, the final word and decision will be alwyas for teh science. In this presentation, we will discuss all the up to date consensus commandementes to get successful direct composite restoration with the least insignificent post-operative pitfalls and long-term successful clinical serviceability.
