Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of retraction techniques on gingival health. Four different method (212 clamp (Hu-Friedy, USA); Brinker B4 clamp (Coltene Hygenic, USA); dental floss using the simple knot tie method; and using the simple knot tie and 212 clamp together) will evaluated. After rubber dam isolation restorations will be performed, each restoration will take maximum 30 minutes. Changes in periodontal tissues will be evaluate; using plaque index, bleeding on probing, probing depth, keratinized gingiva, attached gingiva, relative gingival margin level, relative attachment level and VAS (visual analogue scale) scoring and patient comfort levels after the procedure at different times (pre-restoration, after restoration, 1 week, 1 month, 3 month). The evaluation time is planned not to exceed 10 minutes, restorations are done by a single specialist in Marmara University Restorative Dentistry Department.
