Impact of Glass-Hybrid Restoration on Occlusal Force Distribution and Masticatory Muscle Activity in Children With Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization
Sponsor: Marmara University
Summary
This prospective pilot study evaluates the effect of restoring symptomatic, carious molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH)-affected permanent molars using a glass-hybrid restorative material on occlusal force distribution and masticatory muscle activity. Digital occlusal analysis using the T-Scan system and surface electromyography (sEMG) recordings of the masseter and anterior temporalis muscles are performed before treatment and three months after restoration. Hypersensitivity is assessed using the Schiff Cold Air Sensitivity Scale.

Interventions
Glass-Hybrid Restoration
Selective caries removal followed by bulk-fill glass-hybrid restoration of MIH-affected first permanent molars using Equia Forte®. The procedure is performed by a calibrated pediatric dentist according to the manufacturer's instructions. Occlusion is checked and adjusted after restoration prior to functional assessments.
