Bioactive Restorative Material in Non-Carious Cervical Lesions

February 25, 2024 updated by: Damascus University

Evaluating the Clinical Performance of a Bioactive Restorative Material in Non-Carious Cervical Lesions

Evaluating the clinical performance of a bioactive restorative materiel (Cention N) placed in non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) with no preparation and 1-step adhesive system or, with preparing a gingival retentive groove and no adhesive system.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Cention N is a relatively new restorative material that is known to be the first commercially available bioactive resin composite. The manufacturing company recommends using Cention N with 1-step adhesive system in non-retentive cavities, or with no adhesive system in retentive cavity preparations.

This study was designed to evaluate the clinical performance of this material in non-carious cervical lesions by comparing it to RM-GIC (Fuji II LC).

Information about oral and tooth brushing habits along with detailed information about the characteristics of each NCCL, gingival status, and preoperative sensitivity will be collected for each patient.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Dentin Conditioning & RM-GIC

Dentin Conditioning:

After washing and drying -but not desiccating- Dentin Conditioner 20% (GC, Japan) will be applied using a cotton pellet for 20 seconds then rinsed thoroughly and gently dried.

RM-GIC:

RM-GIC (Fuji II LC) will be applied in <2mm incremental layers afterward light-cured for 10 sec (1,000 mW/cm2) per increment to fill the cavity.

Experimental: 1-step adhesive & Cention N

1-step adhesive: A universal adhesive system (Tetric® N-Bond Universal) will be applied on both enamel and dentin and gently scraped for 20 sec, then dispersed with oil-free gentle air stream, then light-cured for 10 sec (1,000 mW/cm2).

Cention N:

The cavity will be restored using cention N followed by light curing for 10sec (1,000 mW/cm2)

Experimental: Dentin roughness & Gingival retentive groove preparation & Cention N

Dentin roughness:

Using a round carbide bur size 14/16, (H1SEM.204.014 VPE5 or H1SEM.204.016 VPE 5, Komet Dental, Lemgo, Germany) on a low-speed handpiece. (No bevel preparation will be made)

Gingival retentive groove preparation:

Using size-010 round carbide bur (H1SEM.205.010 VPE 5, Komet Dental, Lemgo, Germany) on a low-speed handpiece.

Cention N:

The cavity will be restored using cention N followed by light curing for 10sec (1,000 mW/cm2)
