MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Restorations Scoring Alpha12 monthsRestorations were scored Alpha, Bravo or Charlie for retention, post-operative sensitivity, anatomic form, margin integrity, color match, stain resistance, and secondary caries. Alpha score = 'excellent' Bravo = 'acceptable' Charlie = 'unsatisfactory'. Total Alpha scores were evaluated for the primary outcome.

Percentage of Restorations Scoring Alpha

Restorations were scored Alpha, Bravo or Charlie for retention, post-operative sensitivity, anatomic form, margin integrity, color match, stain resistance, and secondary caries. Alpha score = 'excellent' Bravo = 'acceptable' Charlie = 'unsatisfactory'. Total Alpha scores were evaluated for the primary outcome.

Time frame: 12 months

Population: Analysis was based on the number of study teeth available for review at 12 months
