Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Postoperative hypersensitivity/pulp status
The postoperative hypersensitivity/pulp status will be assessed based on the updated FDI criteria. This parameter is evaluated by scoring the pain experienced during chewing and/or with cold or warm food items, as reported by the patient. The criteria consist of five scores: scores 1-3 indicate success, score 4 indicates the need for restoration repair, and score 5 indicates the need for restoration replacement.
Two years after restoration
Marginal adaptation
The marginal adaptation will be evaluated through visual examination using a 250 µm probe and brief air drying. This assessment will be conducted according to the updated FDI criteria. The criteria consist of five scores: scores 1-3 indicate success, score 4 indicates the need for restoration repair, and score 5 indicates the need for restoration replacement.
Two years after restoration
Study Arms (3)
Dentin etching and rinse (15 seconds etching)
PLACEBO COMPARATORThe dentin in the pulpal floor in this group will receive phosphoric acid etching for 15 seconds followed by rinsing and drying before universal adhesive application
Dentin etching and rinse (5 seconds etching)
ACTIVE COMPARATORThe dentin in the pulpal floor in this group will receive phosphoric acid etching for 5 seconds followed by rinsing and drying before universal adhesive application
Dentin self-etch
PLACEBO COMPARATORThe dentin in the pulpal floor in this group will receive universal adhesive application in self-etch mode without prior phosphoric acid etching
Interventions
Resin composite restoration bonded using universal adhesive in etch and rinse mode (15 seconds etching)
Resin composite restoration bonded using universal adhesive in etch and rinse mode (5 seconds etching)
Resin composite restoration bonded using universal adhesive in self-etch mode
