Restorative dental materials are of great importance in dentistry for restoring and replacing injured or missed teeth with the purpose of simulating natural teeth functions besides providing translucency and tooth-like color shade. Restorative dental materials are produced as crowns, inlays, onlays, multi-unit fixed dental prostheses, and veneers. These materials are divided into two distinct categories, which are direct and indirect restorative materials.
