HEMA-free Universal Adhesives for Restoring Non-carious Cervical Lesions

Egypt28 participantsStarted 2023-01-15

Plain-language summary

because of the recent introduction of universal adhesives, little information is currently available about the bond durability of universal adhesives to various substrates. Evaluation of bond durability is important since the stability of the bond between the adhesive and substrates is related to the clinical success of restorations. Because significant hydrolysis of the dentin-resin interface occurs after 6-12 months, a clinical trial of at least 18 months' duration is indicated to more accurately depict the likelihood of long-term clinical success

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants had to be in good general health, be at least 18 years old * have an acceptable oral hygiene level * Participants were required to have NCCLs in different teeth preferably anterior or posterior that needed to be restored. * These lesions had to be noncarious * deeper than 1 mm * involve both the enamel and dentin of vital teeth without mobility. Exclusion Criteria: * Uncooperative behavior, limits the use of adhesive due to hampering of adequate field or isolation techniques throughout the procedure. * Patients allergic to the adhesive material. Patients with extremely poor oral hygiene * severe or chronic periodontitis * heavy bruxism habits * Pulp involvement

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.
