How do both Strontium and calcium-based GIC compare clinically? [November 20, 2014]

Search result: Ten clinical trials were found and traced concerning high-viscosity conventional GIC. No trials were identified comparing strontium or calcium low-viscosity conventional GIC. All identified trials compared Fuji IX for strontium and Ketac Molar for calcium based GIC. Clinical outcomes: The overall results suggest no difference between Fuji IX and Ketac Molar in the clinical outcomes of: recurrent caries, occlusal wear and colour match. Two of the 10 trials suggest a higher fa...

Pulp response conventional GIC versus Calcium hydroxide (CaOH) cement [November 20, 2014]

Search result: Three clinical trials with a laboratory component were found. Clinical outcomes: There appears to be no difference in the pulp response between conventional GIC and CaOH-cement (CaOH is considered to be the gold standard in pulp treatment due to its high tissue supporting properties. Lack of difference between C-GIC and CaOH suggest high biocompatibility of C-GIC concerning pulp tissue). State of evidence and recommendations: The current level of clinical evidence to this top...

Survival rate of restorations with GIC cavity liners versus GIC restorations [November 17, 2014]

Search result: One clinical trial was found. Clinical outcomes: There appears to be no difference in the success rate of both types. State of evidence and recommendations: The current level of clinical evidence to this topic is still limited in quantity and quality and more trials are needed in order to confirm these results. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic searches of the dental literature and provide first overviews over existi...

Survival rate of restorations with GIC cavity liners versus restorations with no-GIC liners [November 17, 2014]

Search result: Five clinical trials were found. Clinical outcomes: There appears to be no difference in the survival rate of both types of restorations. Post-operative sensitivity appears to be reduced for a short-time period after restoration placement when a GIC liner is used. State of evidence and recommendations: The current level of clinical evidence to this topic is still limited in quantity and quality and more trials are needed in order to confirm these results. [‘Preliminary Syst...

Restoration longevity of conventional high - viscosity GIC restorations versus direct composite filings [November 14, 2014]

Search result: Two clinical trials were found. Clinical outcomes: There appears to be no difference in the survival rate of both types of restorations after 2 years. State of evidence and recommendations: The current level of clinical evidence to this topic is still limited in quantity and quality and more trials are needed in order to confirm these results. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic searches of the dental literature and pr...

Failure rates of direct composite versus GIC/Composite sandwich restorations [November 14, 2014]

Search result: Four clinical trials were found. The limited number of clinical trials is surprising considering that the topic of GIC/Composite sandwich restorations was very popular 20 years ago. However, the bulk of research studies appeared to be limited to a very large number of laboratory (in-vitro) trials, only. Although important to clarify material characteristics, laboratory trials are unable to provide information how well these restorations really perform in the clinic, particu...

Etch-rinse systems with and without selective enamel etching [November 10, 2014]

Search result: Two clinical trials were found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate that additional selective enamel etching does not improve the clinical performance of restorations. State of evidence and recommendations: The quality of the existing evidence requires further assessment. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic searches of the dental literature and provide first overviews over existing clinical evidence but are limited...

Selective enamel etching effect on clinical performance of selfetch / self-adhesive systems [November 4, 2014]

Search result: Nine clinical trials were found. Clinical outcomes: Minor or no improvements are reported when selective enamel etching was used. Selective enamel etching may not pose a hazard in terms of postoperative hypersensitivity. State of evidence and recommendations: The current level of clinical evidence to this topic is still limited in quantity and quality and more trials are needed in order to confirm these results. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on S...

Advantages of Self-etch versus Etch-and-rinse systems [November 4, 2014]

Search result: Eight articles reporting on 4 clinical trials after different follow-up periods were found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate no difference in retention and anatomic form of restorations after 1 – 3 years. Marginal adaptation appears to be superior for etch-and-rinse systems after 1 – 2 years and no difference was found after 3 years. Marginal discoloration is significantly more observed for (1-step) self-etch systems. Post-operative sensitivity was the same for bo...

Resin infiltration to stop carious lesion progression [November 3, 2014]

Search result: Eight clinical studies were found. Clinical outcomes: The results suggest efficacy of resin-infiltration technique to stop caries progression and to improve aesthetic appearance of white spot lesions (WSL). However, discomfort levels appear to be higher than with other noninvasive interventions. State of evidence and recommendations: The quality of the existing evidence requires further assessment. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s peri...

GIC versus RM-GIC as fissure sealant [October 30, 2014]

Search result: Only one clinical study was found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate no difference in the caries preventive effect between both materials as fissure sealants in permanent teeth. The retention rate of RM-GIC in pits and fissures was higher than for conventional GIC. State of evidence and recommendations: The quality of the existing evidence requires further assessment. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic searches o...

Fluoride release of resin-modified GIC versus fluoride containing composite resin [October 27, 2014]

Search result: Only one clinical study was found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate that GICs release more fluoride under clinical conditions than fluoride containing composite resin. State of evidence and recommendations: The quality of the existing evidence requires further assessment. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic searches of the dental literature and provide first overviews over existing clinical evidence but are limi...

Fluoride release of resin-modified GIC versus Compomers [October 27, 2014]

Search result: Two clinical studies were found Clinical outcomes: The results indicate a higher fluoride concentration in plaque surrounding teeth that were either bonded or restored with resin-modified GIC than with compomer. State of evidence and recommendations: The quality of the existing evidence requires further assessment. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic searches of the dental literature and provide first overviews over ex...

Survival rate of ART restorations with high-viscosity GIC versus conventional RM-GIC [October 20, 2014]

Search result: Only one clinical studies concerning restorations were found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate no difference in the survival rate after 12 months. State of evidence and recommendations: The quality of the existing evidence requires further assessment. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic searches of the dental literature and provide first overviews over existing clinical evidence but are limited in the number of d...

Retention of conventional GIC versus RM-GIC restorations [October 20, 2014]

Search result: There is still a lack of studies to this topic and only two clinical studies concerning restorations were found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate no difference in the retention rate after 12 and 42 months in Class V and Class II restorations, respectively. State of evidence and recommendations: The quality of the existing evidence requires further assessment. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic searches of the d...
