Summary

The aim of the study is to compare the short-term marginal integrity of two preparation techniques for Class I composite restoration using two visual assessment techniques, the FDI World Dental Federation and US Public Health Service assessment criteria. In addition, Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) will be used to assess the marginal integrity of the restoration.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Good general health
  • Fair oral hygiene
  • At least 20 teeth in occlusion
  • Available for the duration of the study

Tooth-level inclusion Criteria:

  • Participants with occlusal caries lesion/s in permanent posterior dentition except wisdom teeth
  • Caries lesion can be primary or secondary caries.
  • Caries lesion is in the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) 4 or 5 category.
  • The extent of the caries lesion bucco-lingually is likely not to exceed two-thirds of the occlusal table.
  • The selected tooth must be able to be isolated with either rubber dam or other isolation technique during clinical procedure.
  • The selected tooth must have an opposing antagonist.
  • The selected tooth should be periodontally healthy.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Signs of bruxism

Tooth-level exclusion criteria:

  • Wisdom teeth
  • Present with irreversible pulpitis.
  • Periodontally compromised tooth that may require extraction.
  • Caries lesions that would require cuspal coverage.
