About

Despite significant advances in composite materials, they are still perceived as technique-sensitive and exhibit failure related to excessive wear and polymerization shrinkage. Cention N is a recently introduced alkasite restorative that contains special reactive fillers. Its application in restorative dentistry may be significant, promoting remineralization of carious lesions & reduction of polymerization shrinkage. The study will aim to compare the clinical performance of Cention N (with and without adhesive) and composite resin (Filtek Bulk Fill) in class I restorations using FDI criteria. Thirty-six class I cavities will be selected and equally allocated into 3 groups: Group I (n=12): (Cention N with adhesive), Group II (n=12): (Cention N without adhesive) & Group III (n=12): composite resin (Filtek Bulk Fill) in class I cavities. Patients will be followed up at 1 week 3, 6, and 12 months and evaluated using the FDI criteria. Postoperative sensitivity, staining, and recurrent caries will be evaluated in this clinical trial.
