Clinical Performance of Composites in Patients With Amelogenesis Imperfecta

Not Applicable
Conditions
Amelogenesis Imperfecta
Dental Composite
Dental Caries
Interventions
Other: dental composite
Registration Number
NCT04897724
Lead Sponsor
Neslihan Tekçe
Brief Summary

In AI patients, adhesion still remains the first option in order to achieve an early, minimally invasive intervention, and the altered enamel still represents an acceptable substrate for bonding in some AI variants. Many cases have revealed that the direct composite restorations provide satisfactory esthetic and functionality in restoring AI-affected teeth. The objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical performance of composite restorations in posterior teeth in patients afflicted with Amelogenesis Imperfecta using nanohybrid and nanofill composite materials

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of failed restorations evaluated according to the modified USPSH criteria in patients with occlusal restorations.an average of 1 year

In restorations, retention rate, color match, wear or loss of anatomic form, marginal discoloration, caries, marginal adaptation, and surface texture were scored success or failure according to modified United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria. According to this criteria, success restorations received Alfa (A) or Bravo (B) scores. Alfa (A) represents the ideal clinical situation; Bravo (B) is the clinically acceptable. Failed restorations received Charlie (C) or Delta (D) scores. Charlie (C) is the clinically unacceptable situations where the restorations had to be replaced; Delta (D) is the situation where the restoration is fractured, mobile or missing and needed to be replaced immediately.
