The present invention relates to a dental composition comprising a radically polymerizable compound, a redox initiator system comprising one or more clathrate compounds comprising a host molecule and one or more guest molecules, wherein the host molecule is selected from cyclodextrines, crown ethers, cucurbituriles and calixarenes and the one or more guest molecules are reducing agents, and an oxidizing agent. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a use of the redox initiator system in a dental composition.
