About this study

Official title: How Does Smoking Effect the Clinical Performance of a Universal Adhesive Used With Different Application Modes in Non Carious Cervical Lesions?

The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of smoking on the clinical performance of a universal adhesive used with different application modes in non-carious cervical lesions.

Read the detailed description

Forty-seven patients (having at least three noncarious cervical lesions) were participated in this study. After allocation of patients into 2 groups according to their smoking habits (non-smokers; 24, smokers;23), lesions in each patient were restored with a resin composite, (Essentia, GC) using a universal adhesive G-Premio Bond and phosphoric acid (i-Dental) in three different application modes (etch\&rinse, selective-etch or self-etch). The restorative treatments were performed by single operator. Two experienced and calibrated examiners evaluated the restorations for retention, marginal discoloration, marginal adaptation, color match, postoperative sensitivity and secondary caries at one week (baseline), at 6-, 12, and 18 months using modified USPHS criteria.While the USPHS criteria measure the clinical performance of the restorative material, it scores according to three different degrees;Alpha:The restoration is clinically perfect. Bravo:All features of the restoration are sufficient, need not be renewed. Charlie: the restoration is clinically unsuccessful, unacceptable. The gingival and plaque index were also assessed with a periodontal probe.

What participants receive

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

  • G-Premio Bond in etch&rinse modeDevice

    The phosphoric acid gel was applied to enamel and dentin washed for 5s and was dried gently with air spray. The adhesive system was applied to enamel and dentin surfaces and leave it in place for 10s.

  • G-Premio Bond in selective-etch modeDevice

    The phosphoric acid was applied only on enamel for 10-15s then washed and was gently dried with air spray. The adhesive system was applied to enamel and dentin surfaces.

  • G-Premio Bond in self-etch modeDevice

    The adhesive system was applied to the enamel and dentin surfaces.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Retention

    According to the usphs criteria, retention indicates whether a restorative material is functional in the oral environment, and is the most important criterion by which we can evaluate the success of the material.

    Alpha: Retained. Charlie: Mobile or missing; clinically unacceptable.

    Measured: baseline (one week)-18-month

  2. Marginal Discoloration

    Evaluation of color changes in restoration margins and linear staining along restoration margins. Alfa: No discoloration along the margin. Bravo: Slight and superficial staining (removable, usually localized). Charlie: Deep staining cannot be polished away.

    Measured: baseline (one week)-18-month

  3. Marginal Adaptation

    The marginal adaptation criterion evaluates the complete achievement of tooth-restoration integrity.

    Alpha: Undetectable. Bravo: Visible evidence of a crevice along the margin, dentin not exposed, clinically acceptable.

    Charlie: Explorer penetrates into crevice, dentin is exposed; clinically unacceptable.

    Measured: baseline (one week)-18-month

  4. Color match

    Evaluating whether the restoration and adjacent tooth tissue color is compatible.

    Alpha:Matches tooth. Bravo: Acceptable mismatch. Charlie:Unacceptable mismatch.

    Measured: baseline (one week)-18-month

  5. Post-op Hypersensitivity

    It is the evaluation of sensitivity after dental treatment. Alpha: Hypersensitivity absent. Charlie: Present; clinically unacceptable.

    Measured: baseline (one week)-18-month

  6. Secondary Caries

    In this criterion, the dark colored area that occurs under the tooth tissue surface and in the tooth tissue adjacent to the restoration is defined as caries.

    Alpha: Caries absent. Charlie: Present; clinically unacceptable.

    Measured: baseline (one week)-18-month

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. VAS scale

    Sensitivity to air was assessed by appling a stream of compressed air for three second 1 cm away from the tooth surface while shielding the neighboring teeth with the fingers. After this application, individuals are asked to evaluate the sensitivity of the tooth according to the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). VAS consists of a straight line 10 centimeters (cm) long. The left end of the line is 0 and it means "no pain, the right end is 10", meaning unbearable pain. With the help of this scale, the pain levels in the teeth of individuals with hypersensitivity can be determined.

    Measured: baseline (one week)-18-month

Model description
47 participants having at least three non-carious cervical lesions were included in the study. Participants were divided into two groups as smokers and non-smokers. Before treatment, the dimensions and depth of the lesions were measured with periodontal probe and the sensitivity of each tooth was determined using VAS scale. All of the non-carious cervical lesions were restored with a resin composite, Essentia,GC using one of three different application modes of universal adhesive, G-Premio Bond (etch\&rinse, selective-etch, self-etch). The restorations were placed by a single operator. Two calibrated examiners who were fully blind to restorative procedure evaluated the restorations in terms of retention, marginal discoloration, marginal adaptation, color match, postoperative sensitivity and secondary caries using modified USPHS criteria. The plaque and gingival index were also asessed at baseline and every 6 months of clinical service for 18 months.
