Clinical Study of Activa Bioactive Restorative, Dental Caries
Conditions
Brief summary
electromyographic activity as well as clinical performance of bulk-Fill composite resins with Activa Bioactive Liner
Interventions
Before cavity preparation and restoration, masticatory muscles activity will be evaluated by using electromyography. An electromyography detects the electrical potential generated by muscle cells. A total of 40 posterior teeth will be selected for this study and grouped into 2 main groups (20 for each group)) according to presence of caries in one or both side in patient (unilateral or bilateral). Split mouth technique will be used. The affected teeth will be treated by removing the caries and restored tooth with bulk fill composite material, after restoring the affected teeth. Masticatory muscles activity will be evaluated by using electromyography to detect any changes in masticatory muscles activity before and after restoration.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Electromyographic activity | baseline (immediate) | An electromyography detects the electrical potential generated by muscle cells. When these cells are electrically activated, the signals can be analyzed to detect medical Abnormalities, activation level, or recruitment order, or to analyze the biomechanics of human movement |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Survival rate of restorative material | six months | USPHS criteria |
