ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Indirect composite restoration is one of the commonly followed procedures in the posterior teeth. The success of this is dependent on many factors, one being the luting cement. Hence, the current study explores the microleakage of the two luting cements at 2 different times. Materials andMethods:
Eighty extracted human teeth were taken, and class II cavities were made that were to receive the composite inlays. They were grouped as supragingival and subgingival, which for further divided as were further subdivided to be observed for marginal leakage at cervical and occlusal margins, at the end of a day and 1 month. Each group had ten specimens. The luting cements that were evaluated were Variolink N and RelyX Unicem. After the composite inlay restoration was done for all the specimens, the sections were put on slides, and a stereomicroscope was used to measure the amount of dye penetration. Leakage was evaluated and compared using Mann-Whitney U test.Results:
At the end of 1 day, there was no significant alteration in the microleakage in the occlusal or cervical regions for either region supragingivally or subgingivally between the two luting cements. Significant difference between the two cements at the cervical borders at the end of a month was seen for both the margins. When compared supragingivally and subgingivally at the end of 1 day or at the end of 1 month, there was not a significant difference for any of the cements.Conclusion:
Within the constraints of the current investigation, it can be said that there was similar microleakage for both Variolink N and RelyX Unicem at the conclusion of a day's storage time. After a 1-month storage period, RelyX Unicem showed more cervical microleakage than Variolink N.
