Clinical Outcomes of Bulk-Fill versus Layered Resin Composite Restorations
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 5
Abstract
Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate and compare the clinical performance of class II restored with Tetric EvoCeram bulk-fill, Filtek bulk-fill resin composite, and layered Filtek Z250 resin composite restorations. Materials and Methods: Thirty class II cavities were prepared. The cavities were randomly divided into three groups (n=10) according to the restorative material used (Tetric Evoceram Bulk fill, Filtek bulk-fill and Filtek Z250). The patients were recalled at 6 months and restorations were evaluated using Modified United State Public Health Criteria (USPHS). Results: No statistically significant difference between all the tested restorative materials. Conclusions: Bulk fill restorative materials (Tetric Evoceram bulk fill & Filtek bulk-fill) showed clinical outcomes like that of conventional resin based composite.
