[Placement of composites in the masticatory load-bearing posterior region (in German)].

Direct composite restorations are placed in the cavities in the posterior region using an incremental layering technique. Numerous different layering concepts are described in the literature. However, only those procedures that can be easily and reliably applied in routine clinical treatment have become established in daily practice. This article is intended to provide a clinically oriented overview of the most common layering procedures for the direct restoration of posterior defects with plastic composite materials.
