Bioactive Restorative Material in Non-Carious Cervical Lesions

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Cervical Lesion
Registration Number
NCT05593159
Lead Sponsor
Damascus University
Brief Summary

Evaluating the clinical performance of a bioactive restorative materiel (Cention N) placed in non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) with no preparation and 1-step adhesive system or, with preparing a gingival retentive groove and no adhesive system.

Detailed Description

Cention N is a relatively new restorative material that is known to be the first commercially available bioactive resin composite. The manufacturing company recommends using Cention N with 1-step adhesive system in non-retentive cavities, or with no adhesive system in retentive cavity preparations.

This study was designed to evaluate the clinical performance of this material in non-carious cervical lesions by comparing it to RM-GIC (Fuji II LC).

Information about oral and tooth brushing habits along with detailed information about the characteristics of each NCCL, gingival status, and preoperative sensitivity will be collected for each patient.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in retention rateBaseline: 1 week, follow-ups after 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year

Rated by Modified United States Public Health Service criteria (USPHS) Alpha: Retained. Bravo: Partially retained. Charlie: Missing.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in marginal adaptationBaseline: 1 week, follow-ups after 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year

Rated by modified USPHS. Alpha: Restoration is continuous with existing anatomic form. Bravo: Detectable V-shaped defect in enamel only. Catches explorer going both ways. Charlie: Detectable V-shaped defect to dentin-enamel junction.

Change in surface textureBaseline: 1 week, follow-ups after 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year

Rated by modified USPHS. Alpha: Enamel-like surface. Bravo: Surface rougher than enamel (clinically acceptable). Charlie: Surface unacceptably rough.

Change in secondary cariesBaseline: 1 week, follow-ups after 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year

Rated by modified USPHS. Alpha: No evidence of caries contiguous with the margin. Charlie: Evidence of presence of caries.

Change in restoration fractureBaseline: 1 week, follow-ups after 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year

Rated by modified USPHS. Alpha: None. Bravo: Small chip, but Clinically acceptable. Charlie: Failure due to bulk restorative fracture.

Change in anatomic formBaseline: 1 week, follow-ups after 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year

Rated by modified USPHS. Alpha: Appropriate contour. Bravo: Slightly over/under contoured. Charlie: Unacceptably over/under contoured

Change in marginal discolorationBaseline: 1 week, follow-ups after 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year

Rated by modified USPHS. Alpha: No discoloration along the margin. Bravo: Slight and superficial staining (removable, usually localized). Charlie: Deep staining cannot be polished away.

Change in patient satisfactionBaseline: 1 week, follow-ups after 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year

Rated by modified USPHS. Alpha: Patient is totally satisfied. Bravo: Patient has esthetic complains, or complains related to the inability to chew comfortably. Charlie: Patient is completely unsatisfied.

Change in post-operative sensitivity with stimulationBaseline: 1 week, follow-ups after 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year

Rated by Modified visual analog scale (VAS).

Change in post-operative sensitivity without stimulationBaseline: 1 day, follow-ups after 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year

Rated by Modified visual analog scale (VAS).
