About this study

Official title: Clinical Evaluation of Different Bulk-fill Restorative Resin Restorations

The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of three different bulk-fill restorative resin materials; a bulk fill resin composite, a flowable bulk fill resin composite and a fiber-reinforced resin in Class II restorations over a period of 24 months.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to evaluate the 24-month clinical performance of three different bulk-fill restorative resin materials in Class II restorations. Forty patients with at least three approximal lesions in premolar and molar teeth will be participated in the study. A total of 120 Class II cavities will be restored using Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill (n=40), SureFil SDR flow + Ceram X mono (n=40), and everX Posterior + G-aenial Posterior (n=40) with their respective adhesives according to the manufacturers' instructions. All restorations will be placed by one operator. The restorations will be evaluated at baseline and at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months using modified USPHS criteria by one examiner. The restoration groups for each category will be compared using Pearson's chi-square test, while Cochran's Q test will be used to compare the changes across different time points within each restorative material (p<0.05).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Tetric EvoCeram BulkfillOther

    The preparation will be etched with 37% phosphoric acid. It will be then rinsed with an air-water spray and dried, leaving the dentin slightly moist. An etch-and-rinse adhesive, ExciTE F, will be applied and agitated on the prepared surfaces for at least 10 seconds. The adhesive will be air-thinned and light-cured for 20 seconds with an LED curing unit. The sectional matrix will be placed and fixed with wooden wedges. Then the bulk-fill resin composite, TBF, will be placed in bulk in about 4-mm thickness and then will be cured for 20 seconds.

  • Surefil SDR Flowable bulkfillOther

    The preparation will be etched. A two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive, Prime\&Bond NT will be applied to all enamel/dentin surfaces, air-dried for 5 seconds, and will be light cured for 10 seconds. After the sectional matrix will be placed, the flowable bulk-fill resin composite, SureFil SDR™ flow (Dentsply Caulk, Milford, DE, USA), will be placed in a 4-mm bulk increment in the dentinal part cured for 20 seconds and will be followed by a covering layer of the nanohybrid resin composite, Ceram.X Mono that will be cured for 20 seconds.

  • everX fiber-reinforced resinOther

    The enamel will be etched with 37% phosphoric acid for 10 seconds, then will be rinsed, and dried with an air/water syringe for at least 5 seconds. Self-etch adhesive, G-aenial Bond (GC Co., Tokyo, Japan), will be applied to all enamel/dentin surfaces and gently air thinned and then will be light cured for 10 seconds. After the matrix will be placed and wedged, mesial or distal walls will be built with 1-2-mm layers of G-aenial Posterior resin composite. The fiber-reinforced composite, everX Posterior, will be placed into the cavity in approximately 4-mm thickness. The last 2 mm of the cavity will be restored using the G-aenial Posterior composite as an overlay layer. Each increment will be light cured for 20 seconds using an LED unit.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Tetric EvoCeram Bulkfill, Surefil SDR Flowable bulkfill and everX fiber-reinforced resin in people with Dental Caries, run by Hacettepe University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical evaluation of different restorative resins in class II cavities on posterior teeth according to the modified USPHS criteria (time frame: 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03527953, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 May 2018.
