ABSTRACT
UNLABELLED There is anecdotal evidence that sales of 'own-label' (OL) or 'private label' dental products is increasing, as dentists become more cost conscious in times of economic downturn. However, the purchase of such (less expensive) products could be a false economy if their performance falls below accepted standards. So, while the examination of a resin-based product under research conditions alone may not guarantee success, it could be considered that a material which has been subjected to testing under research conditions will demonstrate its effectiveness under laboratory conditions or reveal its shortcomings; either of these being better than the material not being examined in any way. It was therefore considered appropriate to determine the materials on which research was carried out, with particular reference to OL brands. OBJECTIVE:
To determine whether there is a research base behind OL resin-based restorative dental materials.
