The mechanical strength of experimental light cure composites containing binary filler mixtures with various combinations of irregular and spherical macrofillers in various mixes, and the microfilled ternary system fillers were measured. The compressive strength of the binary mixtures between different shaped fillers was not related to mixing ratios, although it significantly increased as the filler size decreased. The mixing ratio was immaterial within the irregular filler mixture. The compressive strength of the binary mixtures within the spherical fillers increased as the mixing ratio increased while the filler size was relatively large, then the mixing ratio became insignificant as the filler size decreased under 1.4 microns. The compressive strength of the microfilled ternary fillers increased with the decrease in the macrofiller size and with the increase in the mixing ratio. A large diametrical tensile strength was found in several microfilled ternary mixtures containing different shaped macrofillers.
