The Effect of Bulk Filling Flowable Composite on Caries Recurrence in Deep Marginal Elevation: a Randomized Clinical Trial

March 22, 2025 updated by: AHMED AYMAN ESMAIL MAHMOUD, Future University in Egypt
Deep marginal elevation usinge a bioactive dental material in deep subgingival Class II restorations, S-PRG filler-containing materials offer significant benefits due to their bioactive properties, Their ability to release fluoride, remineralization potential and acid neutralization, reducing the risk of recurrent caries, particularly at the gingival margin(Imazato et al. 2023). The antibacterial and antifungal effects help inhibit biofilm formation, enhancing the longevity of restorations. Additionally, these materials support better marginal adaptation by reducing microleakage and improving bond durability (Imazato et al. 2023) This type of composite may improve the outcomes of deep subgingival margin elevation, benefiting both restorative success and periodontal health(Imazato et al. 2023).
