Clinical Evaluation of Bulk-fill Alkasite Restoration Versus Resin Modified Glass Ionomer in Adult Patients With Class V Carious Lesions Over One Year Period: Randomized Clinical Trial

In this study, Class V carious lesions were restored using two different restorative materials either resin modified glass ionomer or Cention N restorative materials. This study will be held in the restorative clinic at Future University in Egypt. Patients will be assessed for medical and dental histories first. Then an examination of the patients will be done using visual inspection by using a dental mirror and probe. Eligible patients according to inclusion and exclusion criteria will be informed about all procedures with follow up time if they accept, 12 their signature on written informed consents will be obtained. Eligible participants will be randomly divided into two groups according to the type of restoration they will be received. The first group (A) will be received resin modified glass ionomer restorative material and the second group (B) will be received Cention N restorative materials. Each restoration will be evaluated for clinical parameters after finishing and polishing at baseline and regular recalls of 6 months and one year.

The restorations will be clinically examined according to modified USPHS criteria in terms of marginal adaptation, anatomic form, color match, marginal discoloration, secondary caries, postoperative sensitivity and retention. The information that will be obtained will be collected and statistically analyzed
