Brief Summary: The aim of this clinical study is to evaluate the performance of three different bioactive restorative materials against a composite resin for a period of 9 months. This randomized, split-mouth, single-center trial was performed on patients having occlusal caries (ICDAS 3 and 4) in both molars of the same jaw. The restorative materials used were Tetric N-Ceram Bulk-fill (control, Ivoclar Vivadent, Liechtenstein), Stela (SDI, Australia), Cention Forte (Ivoclar) and Activa BioActive Restorative (Pulpdent, USA). The restorations were evaluated at baseline, 3-6 and 9-month according to FDI-2 criteria, in terms of functional, biological, and aesthetic parameters, by two experienced evaluators.
Detailed Description: Objectives: To clinically evaluate the performance of three different bioactive restorative materials against a composite resin for a period of 9 months. Materials and Methods: This randomized, split-mouth, single-center trial was performed on patients having occlusal caries (ICDAS 3 and 4) in both molars of the same jaw. The restorative materials used were Tetric N-Ceram Bulk-fill (control, Ivoclar Vivadent, Liechtenstein), Stela (SDI, Australia), Cention Forte (Ivoclar) and Activa BioActive Restorative (Pulpdent, USA). The material allocation was randomly assigned by a drawing lot. The restorations were evaluated at baseline, 3-6 and 9-month according to FDI-2 criteria, in terms of functional, biological, and aesthetic parameters, by two experienced evaluators. Chi-square test was used to compare the variables in the categories. Mann-Whitney U test and paired T test compared the difference in scores for the groups (p\<0.05).
