The dental material contains a polymerizable dental resin of index of refraction n 1, inorganic nano-scale solid particles of index of refraction n 2, dental glass particles of index of refraction n 3, and accessory substances to autopolymerize and light-cure the dental resin. The dental material exhibits a composite index of refraction n 4 in the range of 1.56 to 1.70. The dental material imparts optimal esthetics to the tooth being restored and allows for application in substantially thick layers. |
