| It is hoped that the findings of this study will contribute to a better understanding of the various photoactivation protocols and their impact on the clinical longevity of posterior tooth restorations in Class I cavities, as measured by the presence of fractures, chipping, detachment, secondary caries, and marginal integrity. | — |
