Indirect Resin Composite Inlays Cemented With a Self-adhesive, Self-etch or a Conventional Resin Cement

Egypt40 participantsStarted 2016-10-10

Plain-language summary

The present study was designed to provide further evidence in this particular research prospective, and this study hence aimed to clinically evaluate the 5-years adhesion durability of indirect resin composite inlays luted with three different resin cement strategies in MOD Class II restorations. The formulated null hypothesis was that there is no significant difference in the clinical performances of the three different resin cement strategies for luting indirect resin composite inlays in MOD Class II restorations for 5-years. The research question was as follows: Do self-adhesive resin cements in class II restorations present better clinical performances than conventional etch-and-rinse and self-etch resin cements according to the USPHS criteria?

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with primary caries involving occlusal surface only with ICDAS 2 and 3. * Patients with cavities no more than one-third of the intercuspal distance. * Patients must have a good oral hygiene. * Patients with tooth gives positive response to testing with an electric pulp tester. * Patients with normal and full occlusion. * Patients with opposing teeth should be natural with no restorations. Exclusion Criteria: * High caries risk patients with extremely poor oral hygiene. * Patients involved in orthodontic treatment or periodontal surgery. * Patients with periodontally involved teeth (chronic periodontitis). * Patients with abutments should be excluded. * Patients with heavy bruxism habits and clenching.

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
