Cervical Caries

This randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the clinical performance of the self-adhesive flowable Giomer with and without selective enamel etching compared to flowable Giomer using standard bonding protocol in class V cavity restorations over a period of 18 months.

The material under investigation will offer the patient a high strength and high durability restoration with the advantage of having anti-bacterial properties.

This study compares the effectiveness of three dental materials for restoring anterior cervical caries in high-risk patients: resin-modified glass ionomer (RMGI), Giomer, and a combination technique where RMGI is veneered with Giomer. The 18-month randomized clinical trial will assess 75 patients (25 per group), primarily evaluating secondary caries formation, with additional measurements of restoration integrity, appearance, and sensitivity at baseline, 6, 12, and 18 months.

Evaluation of composite restorations done in carious cervical lesions restored by a conventional universal adhesive in comparison to a universal adhesive that contains and resistant silane coupling agent according to the Modified United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria over 18 months.

The aim of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the six months clinical performance of the self-adhesive bulk-fill composite with the conventional nano-hybrid composite in the cervical lesions of teeth in the esthetic zone. In addition, to evaluate patient's satisfaction towards the self-adhesive bulk-fill material and its total operatory time.
