Retention of microfilled and hybrid resin-based composite in noncarious Class 5 lesions: a double-blind, randomized clinical trial.
This double-blind clinical trial was undertaken to compare the retention rate of restorative material s with contrasting stiffness in noncarious class 5 lesions . All restorations were placed using retraction cord and cotton roll isolation to more closely mimic the general practice setting . Thirty subjects with at least two lesions were recruited to participate in the study . Each subject received one restoration using Silux Plus and one using Z100 . The assignment of material was r and omized , and the subjects were unaware of which tooth had received which material . All restorations were placed with a fourth-generation adhesive liner , Scotchbond Multi- Purpose . Evaluations were performed at baseline , 6 , and 12 months by two independent examiners unaware of the restoration 's group identity . The restorations were evaluated using criteria developed by Cvar and Ryge in a forced-consensus model . Despite the fact that the two material s have widely different elastic modulus values , after 12 months no difference between the retention rates for the two groups was found , and both groups of restorations performed very well
