Graphene-Reinforced CAD/CAM Restorations for MIH-Affected Molars in Adolescents: A Prospective Clinical Study

This study evaluates the clinical performance, marginal integrity, surface wear, color stability, and postoperative sensitivity of graphene-reinforced CAD/CAM indirect restorations (inlays, onlays, overlays) in molars affected by moderate to severe Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization (MIH) in adolescents. A total of 30 patients aged 10-16 years will receive minimally invasive indirect restorations fabricated from a nano-reinforced graphene polymer (G-CAM®). Clinical outcomes will be assessed using FDI criteria, VAS sensitivity scores, patient satisfaction, and digital 3D scans over a 12-month follow-up. The study aims to determine clinical acceptability and safety compared with historical outcomes reported for composite and lithium-disilicate indirect restorations.

Gluma Compared With Bonding Agent for Post-operative Sensitivity Following Composite Restorations

* The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of Gluma desensitizer in reducing post-operative sensitivity following composite restorations in posterior teeth. -Patients visiting OPD will be selected after fulfilment of inclusion criteria. Patients aged 18-45 meeting inclusion criteria and presenting with active primary class I carious lesions on vital molar teeth with ICDAS score 3 will be randomly assigned into two groups: -Group A: Patients will be provided with Gluma desensitizer, Universal Bonding agent and Composite restoration and -Group B: Patients will receive Universal bonding agent and Composite restoration. -The progress of treatment will be followed up immediately (baseline) and at regular follow up visits at 1 week, 1 month and 3 months. * Post-operative sensitivity will be assessed using an air stimulus and rated on a numeric rating scale for post-operative sensitivity assessment ranging from 0 to 10.
