Study Reveals Fibre Reinforced Composites' Performance in Class II Restorations

Posted: September 8, 2025
A recent 18-month randomized controlled trial compared the clinical performance of fibre reinforced resin composites to conventional nanohybrid resin composites in restoring Class II MOD cavities. The study, conducted at Cairo University, Egypt, included 45 participants with carious lesions in vital posterior teeth. Outcomes were assessed using Modified USPHS criteria, focusing on marginal adaptation, gross fracture, marginal discoloration, color match, and recurrent caries. Results were analyzed with statistical significance set at P ≤ 0.016 between groups and P ≤ 0.005 within groups. The study aimed to determine the efficacy of short glass fibre reinforced resin composite, polyethylene fibre reinforced resin composite, and conventional nanohybrid resin composite in dental restorations.
