Clinical Relevance Class I and II composite restorations placed with a Soft-Start technique showed no significant changes in post-op sensitivity to cold or any decreased signs of marginal stress.

Clinical Relevance Evopress ceramic inlays and Filtek Z250 composite restorations showed no significant difference regarding survival probability at 57 months when used as Class I and II restoratives in premolars and molars. Both materials demonstrated acceptable clinical performance, with a preference for the ceramic inlays.

Clinical Relevance Low dentin bond strength has been previously documented when one-bottle adhesives are used with self-cured resin-based composites. Low dentin bond strength may also occur when one-bottle adhesives are used with light-cured resin-based composites that are activated by soft-start or pulse-delay curing strategies.

Clinical Relevance Indirect resin composite restorations represent a good choice for the therapy of severely damaged teeth. There is no clinical difference between Ormocer and nano-hybrid resin composite after 36 months.

Clinical Relevance Extensive degradation of dentin hybrid layers formed with an acetone-based dentin adhesive beneath Class I resin composite restorations was evident after one year unless the teeth received an application of 2% chlorhexidine digluconate after etching.

Clinical Relevance Within the limitations of the current study, the use of glass ionomer liners improves the margin quality of Class I resin composite restorations and reduces leakage.

Clinical Relevance Selection of photo-curing protocol (high intensity vs soft-start) and matrix type (transparent vs metal) did not influence the margin quality and marginal seal of Class II resin-based composite restorations.

Clinical Relevance Degradation of dentin hybrid layers in Class I resin composite restorations is minimal over six months but is lessened by the application of 2% chlorhexidine digluconate after etching.

Clinical Relevance C-factor has an important influence on marginal and internal adaptation in large posterior cavities. A thick bonding layer does not optimize adaptation in Class I restorations.

Clinical Relevance In this study, soft-start photoactivation methods were demonstrated to be able to reduce microleakage with only a discrete reduction in the degree of conversion. This was achieved when this protocol was associated with a 7 mm distance from the light guide, which is common in deep preparations in clinical practice.
