Composite Resin VS Sonic Fill

Details and patient eligibility

About

The aim of this study is to assess the postoperative pain following restoration with composite resin versus sonic fill in children with deep carious first permanent molar.

Full description

For many years, composite resin restorations have been considered an acceptable treatment choice for anterior applications. Recent advances in composite resin mechanical properties and improved adhesive systems have broadened the application of these materials to include the restoration of posterior teeth. However, it is still generally accepted that posterior composite resin restorations have limitations and that there is no ideal material available. A volumetric shrinkage occurs when a composite resin material is cured. The shrinkage is the result of conversion of monomer molecules into a more dense polymer network, which leads to bulk contraction. A new nanohybrid composite activated by sonic energy has been recently introduced as a single-step, bulk-fill restorative material. This system utilizes the patented sonic-activation technology enabling a rapid flow of composite into the cavity for effortless placement and superior adaptation in one single layer, thereby, emphasizes its practical and efficient technique for placing posterior composites. The hand piece, designed by KaVo (Germany), delivers sonic energy at varying intensities, which is adjusted on the shank from low to high (1 to 5) to control rate of composite extrusion.

Sonic Fill Restoration

Experimental group

Description:

Using sonic activation system turns the highly filled sonic fill composite into a flowable which enables the material to rapidly fill the cavity effortlessly- greatly reducing procedure time.

Treatment:

Procedure: Sonic Fill Restoration

Composite Resin Restoration

Active Comparator group

Description:

Direct composite restorations are the most requested and performed dental procedures. The incremental placement technique is the gold standard for posterior universal composite placement.

Treatment:

Procedure: Composite Resin Restoration
