Clinical Success of Single-Color Universal Resin Composites

According to FDI and modified USPHS criteria, the success of 4 different universal resin composites was targeted. In our study, a total of 180 teeth will be restored in class 2 cavities with 5 different composite resins in 5 groups.

The study will be conducted in the clinic of the Atatürk University Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Restorative Dental Treatment. After the participants fulfil the inclusion criteria, no interventional procedures other than the treatments routinely applied in the clinic will be performed. Participants who apply to the clinic with the need for dental caries treatment will be included in the study if they accept it. Before the treatment, anamnesis will be taken from the participants, and their information (age, gender) will be recorded. If necessary, local anaesthesia will be applied before or after opening the cavity. If anaesthesia is applied, they will be asked whether they feel numbness. In the study, a total of 180 teeth in 5 groups will be restored with 5 different composite resins.

Then, the cavity will be prepared by using diamond rond and steel rond drills in class 2 cavity preparation. After the enamel surfaces of the teeth are roughened and washed with 37% orthophosphoric acid for 30 seconds, the necessary isolation will be provided with cotton pellets and saliva absorbent. Teeth will be fixed with matrix band and wedge systems. The adhesive bond system will be applied to all surfaces of the cavity with a bonding brush according to the manufacturer's instructions. Air will be gently applied to the cavity surface to create a shiny surface with an air gun. It will then be polymerised with an LED light device. Next, five different resin composites will be placed in the respective cavities and polymerised again with the light device. Finishing operations will be performed with a diamond-lobed milling cutter, and polishing operations will be performed with rubber systems. To evaluate the clinical success of the restorations, participants will be called at 1 week (baseline), 6 months, and 1 year to be evaluated by two specialists using FDI criteria and modified USPHS criteria, and the results will be recorded.
