Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of Filtek Bulk Fill Posterior Restorative in Class I and Class II restorations compared to the conventional incremental technique using Filtek Z350XT over the period of 2 years. The null hypothesis of this study is that the bulk-fill composite will exhibit same result and clinical performance as conventional composite using incremental technique which has been used widely by dentists nowadays.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Modified United States Public Health Services (USPHS) criteria
All the restorations will be analyzed by using Modified United States Public Health Services (USPHS) criteria, focusing more on the clinical criteria of the restoration. The characteristics of all the restorations will be described by using descriptive statistics using cumulative frequency distributions of the scores.

Study Arms (2)
Bulk Fill Composite
EXPERIMENTALIn the experimental cavity, Filtek Bulk Fill Posterior Restorative (3M ESPE) will be placed in 5 mm increments, eliminating the need for additional layers or multiple steps.
Layered Composite
ACTIVE COMPARATORThe control restoration will be filled with Filtek Z350 XT (3M ESPE) using the 2 mm incremental layering technique.
Interventions
Filtek™ Bulk Fill Posterior Restorative is a one-step bulk placement solution for fast and easy posterior resin restorations.
Filtek Z350XT is a material for incremental layered composite resin restorations

- Masking Details
- The cavity in an individual will be randomly assigned to either the experimental or the control restoration, according to a predetermined scheme of randomization. If the participants have two cavities, they will not know in which cavity the experimental and control restoration were placed. All the restorations will be analyzed by using Modified United States Public Health Services (USPHS) criteria. The investigators and outcome assessors evaluating the restorations will not know which tooth has been restored with the experimental or control restoration
