The acid-etch technique was introduced in 1955. Cohesive gold foil, which could be condensed directly into the cavity preparation, was introduced in 1855. In 1907, Dr. William Taggart demonstrated a casting method to produce gold inlays. Synthetic resins were introduced in 1932; these resins soon replaced rubber as the denture base of choice. Around this time, synthetic resins also became a popular tooth-colored alternative, and, together with the introduction of the acid-etch technique, they have evolved into composite resin, one of the most popular restorative materials.
