Clinical Comparison of Restorative Materials

Sponsor: Recep Tayyip Erdogan University

Summary

Composite resin materials are the first treatment choice in direct restorations due to their good mechanical properties, excellent esthetic properties, conservative preparation, and successful clinical performance. However, resin-based composite materials in deep cavities are more likely to irritate the pulp tissue due to insufficient polymerization and residual monomer release. Therefore, glass ionomer-based restorative materials can be used more successfully in deep cavities. In addition, the hardening mechanisms of high-viscosity glass ionomer cement are the same as those of conventional glass ionomer cement, and their wear resistance, surface hardness, compression, and bending strength are increased. No clinical studies evaluate the performance of different restorative materials in deep cavities. This clinical study aims to evaluate the clinical performance of high-viscosity glass ionomer, bulk-fill composite, and conventional composite in deep cavities.
