“…24 Another important issue is the problem of postoperative sensitivity, which has always been a major point of concern when using direct composite restorations under clinical situations. 16 No postoperative sensitivity, however, has been observed in the current study. This is in accordance with findings of previous studies.…”

“…Additional reports and reviews support this good clinical performance of larger composite restorations, and they showed no significant difference between direct and indirect resin composite restorations. [16][17] Surface texture of the restorations investigated was inconspicuous overall. However, micro-defects caused by physico-mechanical wear may affect the resin composite material surface.…”

The occlusion of extensively worn teeth can be restored using direct resin composite materials. The quality over a mean observation period of three years is good. The proposed method, using a wax-up-based template, can help the clinician to restore the occlusal anatomy and function. SUMMARYThe use of resin composite materials to restore the complete occlusion of worn teeth is controversial and data are scarce. In this case series, the authors report on seven cases of progressive mixed erosive/abrasive worn dentition (85 posterior teeth) that have been reconstructed with direct resin composite restorations.In all patients, either one or both tooth arches was completely restored using direct resin composite restorations. All patients were treated with standardized materials and protocols. In five patients, a wax-up-based template was used to avoid freehand build-up techniques and to ensure optimal anatomy and function. All patients were re-assessed after a mean service time of three years (mean 35 ± 5 months) using USPHS criteria. Subjective patient satisfaction was measured using visual analogue scales (VAS).The overall quality of the restorations was good, with predominantly determined "Alpha"-scores. Only the marginal quality showed small deteriorations, with "Beta" scores of 37% and 45% for marginal discoloration and integrity, respec- tively. In general, the composite showed signs of wear facets that resulted in 46% "Beta" scores within the anatomy scores. Small restoration fractures were only seen in two restorations, which were reparable. Two teeth were excluded from the evaluation, as they have been previously repaired due to fracture after biting on a nut.The results were very favorable, and the patients were satisfied with this non-invasive and economic treatment option, which still has the characteristic of a medium-term rehabilitation. The outcomes were comparable to other direct composite restorations successfully applied in adhesive dentistry.

In daily practice, an evidence-based approach is becoming more expected of dentist.However, only outcomes obtained from clinical studies are accepted as evidence. Although many clinical trials have been performed, most of them are short-term studies, whereas long-term studies are likely to provide more reliable evidence. In this article, prospective studies and retrospective longitudinal clinical studies on resin composite restorations were systematically searched with PubMed for literature in English and with Japana Centra Revuo Medicina (Ichushi Web) for articles in Japanese. Finally, 21 long-term (8 years or more) prospective studies and nine retrospective studies with survival analysis were selected and reviewed from more than 561 papers. The overall findings suggest that at least 60% of resin composite restorations will last more than 10 years when proper materials are applied correctly. Patient-, operator-, material-and tooth-related factors may have an influence on the survival of resin composite restorations. Appropriate maintenance policies based on MI concepts are claimed to enhance the longevity of resin composite restorations.

“…Initially, the performance of resin composites was poor, due to inadequate wear resistance, various types of fractures, postoperative sensitivity, marginal leakage, secondary caries, insufficient occlusal morphology and lack of appropriate proximal contact. 4 There have been several important investigations and publications about composites in recent dental history. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] Continuous research in this field has contributed to improvements and developments.…”

A Kiremitci • T Alpaslan • S Gurgan Clinical RelevanceAs a posterior composite, Filtek P60 exhibited very good clinical performance in Class II cavities for six years. Methods: A total of 47 restorations were placed in the Class II cavity preparations (27 premolars and 20 molars) of 33 patients (22 female/11 male; mean age 34) by the same operator. The restorations were evaluated by two examiners at baseline and 1, 2, 3 and 6 years according to the method developed by Ryge, which also is known as the United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria. The following characteristics were observed: marginal adaptation, anatomical form, surface texture, marginal discoloration, surface staining, post-operative sensitivity and secondary caries. The Chi-square and Wilcoxon signed rank test with Bonferroni adjustment were used for statistical analysis (p=0.05).Results: All the restorations received Alpha scores at baseline assessment, except for one restoration, which showed post-operative sensitivity. At the three-year recall examination, two patients, with a total of three restorations, were not included. From baseline to three years, only two of the 44 restorations changed from Alpha to Conclusions: The clinical performance of the posterior composite restorations that were evaluated was acceptable after six years of service.
