Dental composition comprising (i) a particulate filler; (ii) a polymerizable hydrolysis-stable compound of the following formula (1) AX n wherein A is a linker group containing at least n nitrogen atoms and optionally one or more acidic groups, X are moieties containing a polymerizable double bond and forming an amide bond with a nitrogen atom of A, which X may be the same or different and are represented by the following formula (2) wherein R 1 and R 2 are independent from each other and represent a hydrogen atom, a C 1-6 alkyl group or a group —(CH 2 ) m —Z, wherein Z is COOM, OPO 3 M 2 , PO 3 M 2 , SO 3 M, and M is independently a hydrogen atom or a metal atom, and m is an integer of from 0 to 6, L is a bond, a C 1-6 alkylene group; and n is an integer of at least 1; provided that at least one X cannot be a (meth)acryl group; and (iii) an initiator system. |
