RESEARCH

ULTRACONSERVATIVE AND CARIOSTATIC SEALED RESTORATIONS: RESULTS AT YEAR 10



EVA J. MERTZ-FAIRHURST, D.D.S., JAMES W. CURTIS JR., D.M.D., JANET W. ERGLE, C.D.A., FRED A. RUEGGEBERG, D.D.S., M.S. and STEVEN M. ADAIR, D.D.S., M.S.

Changes in restorative techniques and the development of newer restorative materials have allowed for the use of more conservative cavity preparations. This 10-year study evaluated bonded and sealed composite restorations placed directly over frank cavitated lesions extending into dentin vs. sealed conservative amalgam restorations and conventional unsealed amalgam restorations. The results indicate that both types of sealed restorations exhibited superior clinical performance and longevity compared with unsealed amalgam restorations. Also, the bonded and sealed composite restorations placed over the frank cavitated lesions arrested the clinical progress of these lesions for 10 years.
