Dental Implant Techniques and Outcomes

For this study, 90 restorations of Adaptic or Radiopaque Adaptic composite resins were assessed for two years to determine the preferred material for Class I and Class IV restorations on incisors and permanent and deciduous molars. The clinical performances of Adaptic and Radiopaque Adaptic restorative materials are compared according to their properties of retention, marginal integrity, and color change. The advantage of radiopacity in Class I and Class IV restorations of anterior and posterior teeth is discussed.
