Strategies to design extrinsic stimuli-responsive dental polymers capable of autorepairing

Objectives. For many years, the requirements for dental polymers were limited to inertially filling the cavity and restoring form, function, and esthetics. Inorganic filler systems were widely enhanced to maximize the mechanical properties and optimize finishing and polishing procedures. The develop...
