  • Title: Teaching Class I and Class II direct composite restorations: results of a survey of dental schools.
    Author: Mjör IA, Wilson NH.
    Journal: J Am Dent Assoc; 1998 Oct; 129(10):1415-21. PubMed ID: 9787538.
    Abstract:
    The authors surveyed 54 North American dental schools about their teaching programs for posterior composite restorations. Marked variations were noted in the time spent teaching the use of these restorations, their indications and contraindications, and the techniques used for preparing and inserting the restorations. Although the time devoted to teaching placement of posterior composite restorations has increased during the last 10 to 12 years, most recent dental school graduates have minimal clinical experience with Class I and Class II composite restoration.
