Abstract: Lightcuring resin composites are widely used as dental restorative materials in clinic. Partial monomers don’t polymerize when the resin composites are cured with light, thus turning into residual monomers which will release in the oral environment. In addition, resin can release some components due to biodegradation induced by saliva and enzyme. All of these components may affect body tissues. Released monomers can be measured by numerous techniques including HPLC, LC/MS, HPLC/MS, and GS/MS.The aim of this article was to review the reasons for the released components, their effects on human body and detection methods of these residual monomers.

Key words: lightcuring resin composite, residual monomer, release, detection method
