A Novel Technique for Bulk-Fill Resin-Based Restorations: Achieving Function and Esthetics in Posterior Teeth

Abstract: Advances in the mechanical properties of composite resins have allowed for their use in posterior teeth. Conventional resins have several problems associated with polymerization shrinkage stress. The development of “bulk-fill” resins has allowed for their use in single increments up to depths of 4 mm, with very low polymerization shrinkage stress. Nevertheless, differences in anatomy and the desire for optimal esthetics present unique difficulties. This article describes a step-by-step technique using flowable… Show more

“…The occlusal capping is proven to provide good clinical results in extensive class II cavities in permanent teeth [68]. Advantages of this technique include an increased color stability due to the nearly natural optical properties (value, refractive index) of the enamel layer of the conventional resin [69,70]. These characteristics optimize the final appearance, leading to a more aesthetic restoration [69].…”

“…Gran parte de estas restauraciones requieren un alto tiempo clínico y experiencia debido a la complejidad en su ejecución (15,16,17). La primera técnica presentada en este artículo tiene como ventaja la reducción del tiempo clínico, pero indudablemente requiere de un clínico altamente entrenado debido a la dificultad de esculpir la resina compuesta en un solo incremento, así como también requerir de una mayor pulcritud debido a la posibilidad de incorporación de burbujas de aire y mayor rapidez de ejecución por la posibilidad de polimerización determinada por la alta translucidez del material (6,18). Aun así, autores como Ali Riza y Mehmet Esad (19), describen la presencia de "tecnología de fotopolimerización amplificada por radicales", la cual ofrecería un tiempo reducido de polimerización y excelente estabilidad ante la luz ambiental.…”

“…La segunda técnica tiene como ventaja lograr una correcta mimética oclusal debido a que la capa final de esmalte es realizada con una resina para estratificación de esmalte, cuyo índice de refracción es idéntico al esmalte natural (6). Además, esta técnica requiere menor tiempo clínico, ya que la masa dentinaria es incorporada mediante un solo incremento, en comparación a la técnica convencional por capas.…”
