Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This randomized, multi-centric, controlled clinical trial will assess the effectiveness of a simplified restorative protocol used after the selective carious tissue removal in posterior teeth presenting deep carious lesions. Only a regular bulk-fill composite will be used in the simplified restorative protocol following the application of universal adhesive. A liner with resin-modified glass ionomer will be used over the pulpal floor before the composite placement in the control group. The longevity of restorative procedures and post-operative sensitivity were defined as the main and secondary outcomes.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Simplified restorative procedure

After selective carious tissue removal, the universal adhesive (Adper Universal; 3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, EUA) will be applied on the cavity walls. The cavity will be restored using a single increment of Filtek One Bulk Fill (3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, EUA).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Restoration of carious lesions

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Selective carious tissue removal followed by restoration of the cavity using composite resin.

Control

A thin layer of resin-modified glass ionomer (Ionoseal (Voco America Inc., Briarcliff Manor, NY, EUA) will be placed on the pulpal floor of the cavity. Then, the adhesive and composite will be used following the same directions defined for the experimental condition.
