Trial Summary
Trial Overview
Inclusion Criteria
Polymerization shrinkage remains one of the primary disadvantages of composite resin
restorative materials (tooth-colored fillings). To minimize the effects of polymerization
shrinkage in the restorative treatment, the 3M ESPE company has developed a composite resin
called Filtek Bulk Fill Posterior Restorative. Its decreased polymerization shrinkage and
properties allow the material to be inserted in one single increment, expediting treatment.
This clinical trial is designed to evaluate the performance of the new bulk fill composite
resin in Class II (two-surface posterior) fillings.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Be 18 years of age and older

- Have a pair of similar cavities or failed dental fillings in vital permanent posterior
teeth requiring treatment

- Be capable of giving written informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Have a self-reported history of any adverse reaction to materials of the types to be
evaluated

- Have a medical or dental history that could possibly complicate the provision of the
proposed treatment and/or influence the behavior and performance of the treatment in
clinical service.
