Dental Restoration Failure

Interventions

The participating teeth will be randomly divided between the intervention groups and will undergo the restorative procedure according to their allocation. Group 1 (control) will consist of 55 teeth th

Eligibility

Age
18 Years to No maximum

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Volunteers over the age of 18, of both sexes, without systemic diseases, with good oral hygiene conditions, and without periodontal disease. Regarding dental aspects, volunteers must present at least one posterior vital tooth, with no history of previous dentin hypersensitivity, presenting either a carious lesion requiring restoration or a deficient posterior restoration that needs replacement (due to caries, fractures, or reasons reported by the patient). The lesions must be classified as Class I or II (involving the occlusal surface), with a minimum depth of 2 mm, which will be assessed through digital bitewing radiographs and a millimeter ruler. In addition, the teeth requiring restorative treatment must have an antagonist tooth in occlusion

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Participants who require endodontic treatment (to be assessed by radiographic examination and cold pulp vitality test), as well as those who have already undergone endodontic therapy in the tooth in question, and those presenting with periodontal problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding participants, individuals with a history of allergy to any of the materials to be used in the research, participants with bruxism or significant oral pathologies, participants with non-carious cervical lesions, and those currently using or who have used anti-inflammatory drugs, analgesics, or psychotropic medications (as these may mask the results of postoperative sensitivity) within the 15 days prior to the restorative procedure will also be excluded
