“…Although previous studies that applied the same methodology to test edge strength used disc-shaped specimens, the specimens in this study were rectangular. 24,26 This shape was selected as the ceramic materials tested were all provided by the manufacturers in the form of blocks that are milled by CAD/CAM machines. However, the shape of the specimens is not expected to have an effect on the results.…”

“…24,26 Care was taken to make sure that the specimens were secured tightly in place so that no movement occurred during loading. The machine is also equipped with an acoustic sensor that detects signals released upon cracking of the specimens and registers the force at the release of these signals precisely.…”

“…Flowable composites are characterized in a lower filler loading and a greater proportion of diluent monomers in the formulation 9) . These composites were traditionally created by retaining the same small particle size of the conventional hybrid composites, but reducing the filler content and allowing the increased resin to reduce the viscosity of the mixture 7,10) .…”

The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate marginal integrity and wall adaptation in 1-and 2-mm-deep cavities restored with a high filler-loaded flowable composite in comparison to a flowable composite with lower filler content and a conventional hybrid composite. 1-mm-deep dentin and 2-mm-deep enamel-dentin Class I cavities were prepared and restored with a self-etch adhesive and with one of the composites. Samples were crosscut and evaluated for marginal integrity and gap formation using a digital microscope. Selected samples were also observed using a scanning electron microscope. For 1-mm-deep cavities, no differences in marginal integrity and wall adaptation were observed among the three composites. For 2-mm-deep cavities, those restored with the bulk technique and with the higher filler-loaded flowable composite demonstrated a similar outcome as that of the conventional hybrid composite. On the effect of restorative techniques, cohesive enamel defects were observed in bulk-filled 2-mm-deep cavities. However, when the incremental technique was used in conjunction with the higher filler-loaded flowable composite and the conventional hybrid composite for 2-mm-deep cavities, superior results were obtained.
