An aesthetic filling therapy

This study is a clinical trial of the the resin-based restorative material CLEARFIL MAJESTY (the product name of CLEARFIL MAJESTY Esthetic in the Japanese market, also with a difference in shade colours) together with the self-etching adhesive CLEARFIL S3 BOND (CLEARFIL tri-S bond).

A total of 30 restorations were placed in 30 human subjects in caries-free Class V roded/abraded areas in permanent teeth.

The reports after 18 months recorded the satisfactory status of all restorations following recovery from the operative procedure of placement. At the 18 month recall, all restorations that were reviewed were satisfactory in all clinical criteria specified. No failures have so far been observed at all recalls and the Kaplan-Meier probability of survival rate for these restorations after 18 months is 1.00.

Objective of the investigation

This trial will determine the short-term efficacy of CLEARFIL MAJESTY with the self-etching adhesive CLEARFIL S3 BOND (CLEARFIL tri-S bond) as a dentine and enamel adhesive material, in a group of patients under conditions which represent its normal conditions of use.
