63 participants in 3 patient groups

3M™ Ketac™ Universal Aplicap™

Experimental group

Description:

3M™ Ketac™ Universal Aplicap™ Glass Ionomer Restorative Clean the cavity preparation with water. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Extrude the mixed ketac universal out of the capsule directly into the prepared cavity with a capsule gun. Please ensure that no air bubbles are included. It is recommended that the finishing and polishing can be continued after approximately 4 minutes after the start of the mixing or earlier if heat is applied for faster setting. The finishing and polishing can be done immediately after final setting with Extra-Fine, Friction Grip diamonds under water-cooling.

Other: restorative materials

Filtek™ Bulk Fill Flowable composite

Experimental group

Description:

Filtek™ Bulk Fill Flowable Restorative is the 3M ESPE choice in the bulk fill flowable category. Selective etching 15-20 s for enamel. The adhesive system (BISCO universal all bond) will be applied following the manufacturer's instructions (apply 2 coats 20 s before curing). Bulk fill flowable composite will be light cured for 40 s using a visible light curing unit.

Other: restorative materials

ketac N100

Active Comparator group

Description:

Ketac™ Nano Light Curing Glass Ionomer Restorative. Primer will be applied to both enamel and dentinal surfaces for 15 seconds. The prepared tooth surfaces will be wet with the primer for the full application time. Dispensing two clicks from the Clicker™ Dispenser will provide an adequate amount of material for most restorative filling applications. It will be placed with a syringe system then will be placed in 2mm increments or less, and light cured after each increment. An LED curing light will cure all shades with a 20 second light exposure. Finishing Ketac Nano restorative will be polished with conventional finishing and polishing instruments such as a diamond impregnated rubberized polishing system under water spray. A glaze such as Vitremer™ Finishing Gloss will be applied after polishing if desired.
