Brief summary

This study aimed to investigate the effect of using a loupe and dental operating microscope with different magnifications on the success of class II direct composite restorations.

Detailed description

A total of 130 class II, D2 deep caries teeth of 85 patients were randomly distributed to the naked eye, 3x magnification loupe, 5x magnification loupe, 8.5x magnification dental operating microscope (DOM) groups, and direct composite restorations were made with these magnification aids. carried out. Clearfil SE Bond 2 and Clearfil Majesty Posterior composite were used in all restorations. The restorations were evaluated using FDI criteria at 1,6 and 12-month periods, and restorations were scored between 1 and 5 for all criteria.
