Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Primary: To evaluate the clinical longevity of 3D printed composite resin restorations (digital flow) and indirect composite resin restorations placed in large cavities in posterior teeth. To assess the occurrence of failures and/or deterioration of restorations, the FDI criteria will be used (Hickel et al., 2023). The FDI criteria consider three categories of clinical evaluation parameters: aesthetic, functional and biological, adopting scores ranging from score 1 (excellent restoration that meets all quality criteria) to score 5 (restoration that needs to be replaced). Other complications and failures that are not considered in the FDI criteria (e.g. de-cementation) will be recorded. The success rate will be calculated considering failure when the evaluation presents scores of 4 or 5 in any of the FDI parameters. All information will be collected through the clinical record developed for the study. | — |
