Abstract:
This study compared the clinical performance of a polyacid-modified resin composite and a resin-modified glass-ionomer restorative material over two years. Thirty-four pairs of restorations of Compoglass and Fuji II LC were placed in caries-free cervical erosion/abfraction lesions without tooth preparation. Restorations were clinically evaluated at baseline, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months using modified Ryge/USPHS criteria. A significantly higher incidence of failed restorations was found with the polyacid-modified resin composite (p < 0.05).
