Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Exclusion Criteria Participants will be excluded if they: 1 Have complex Class II lesions, crowding/spacing, or tooth mobility 2 Present with periodontal disease 3 Have deep cavities or pulp involvement 4 Have previously restored adjacent proximal surfaces 5 Lack contact with the adjacent tooth 6.Do not provide informed consent
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1 Proximal contact tightness will be assessed using FDI criteria via the dental floss test and categorised as optimum, tight or open. 2 Radiographic evaluation of overhangs will be conducted using bitewing radiographs and classified as absent, positive or negative. Timepoint: at baseline | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. The study will evaluate differences among the three matrix systems in terms of proximal contour accuracy(FDI .criteria), radiographic overhang formation,operator handling/ease of placement & patient comfort with floss passage & food impaction.Timepoint: Immediately post-restoration (single visit). | — |
