Process for restoring teeth with visible light curable compositions having improved color stability are provided. According to a preferred embodiment, visible light hardenable restorative materials are formulated from a major proportion of inorganic filler and a minor proportion of a resin component comprising a binder resin selected from the group of acrylated polyesters, acrylated polyesters reacted with an isocyanate, and hydroxyalkyl acrylic esters reacted with an isocyanate, polymerizable acrylic diluent monomer in an amount sufficient to control the viscosity of the resin component, and a photosensitizing system comprising of from about 0.05% to about 0.50% by weight of the restorative material of an alpha diketone together with an amine reducing agent. American Dental Association color stability standards are met by these compositions.

A process of restoring teeth comprising applying to a prepared tooth a dental restorative composition hardenable by irradiation with visible light comprising a blend of: a major proportion of an inorganic filler, and a minor proportion of a resin component having a viscosity of between about 5,000 and 70,000 centiposes at 25°C. comprising: a binder resin comprising bis-GMA reacted with a diisocyanate, a polymerizable acrylic diluent monomer present in an amount sufficient to dissolve said binder resin and a photosensitizing system comprising: from about 0.05% to about 0.50% by weight of said resin component of a non-aromatic alpha diketone, and an amine reducing agent in an amount sufficient to improve the photocatalytic activity to visible light of said alpha diketone in said restorative composition, said inorganic filler and said resin component being present in relative amounts such that said restorative composition has a viscosity suitable for filling teeth, said composition being capable of passing American Dental Association Specification No. 27 for color stability, and exposing said composition to visible light to effect substantial polymerization thereof.
