Shrinkage stress and elastic modulus assessment of bulk-fill composites

Conclusions: Bulk-fill resin composites presented equal to lower shrinkage stress generation when compared to conventional composites, especially when bigger increments were evaluated. Bulk-fill composites showed a wide range of elastic modulus values, but usually similar to “ regular ” composites.
