Brief Summary

This study aims to investigate consecutive biological changes in proximal contact tightness using digital force gauge and evaluate proximal contact location using cone beam computed tomography between class II direct composite restorations and adjacent teeth after using sectional matrix system and with different contact forming instruments.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in proximal contact tightness

    Proximal contact tightness (PCT) will be measured using the custom-made contact pressure system that was based on the tooth pressure meter, a device fabricated at the University of Technology, Delft, the Netherlands. (20) The system will use a 0.05-mm-thick metal strip inserted interdentally from An occlusal direction . The metal strip will be connected to the digital force gauge (Mark-10 series 2 digital force gauge). The tightness of the proximal contact will be quantified as the maximum frictional force when the strip will slowly removed in a buccal-lingual direction. The maximum force will be recorded on the screen of the gauge for each measurement when the gauge will be switched to peak-mode

    baseline, immediately postoperative, 1 month, 3 month, 9 month, and 12 month

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in proximal contact location

    baseline and immediately postoperative

Masking Details
Each case will be represented by a code and the group name. These will be sealed in a sequentially numbered opaque envelope and the set of envelopes will be given to the senior supervisor. When the investigator wants to enroll a new case, he will notify the supervisor who will take the next inline envelope and will write the name of the participant on it. At the time of intervention implementation, the investigator will open the sealed envelope and retrieve the allocation and apply.
