Fiber reinforced composite (FRC) is a promising class of materials that gives clinicians alternative treatment options. FRCs are acknowledged by their excellent mechanical properties, and their strength is superior to many restorative dental materials. This chapter presents basic material science background for the successful use of FRCs and provides state-of-the-art knowledge in the field of FRC materials in dentistry.
