Clinical Evaluation of Kerr SonicFill™ 2 vs 3M ESPE Filtek™ Supreme Ultra Universal Restorative
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating SonicFill™ 2 and Filtek™ Supreme for Dental Caries. Completed, enrolled 51 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare esthetic, functional and biological properties of two restoration materials used to fill cavities. One material is called "Filtek™ Supreme" which is a traditional tooth colored resin composite that is placed in the cavity in layers and hardened with UV light. The second material is called "SonicFill™ 2," which is a bulk fill composite that uses an ultrasonic hand piece to change the material from a solid into a liquid in order to place it into the cavity. This material can be placed in the cavity in 1 layer, and is hardened using UV light. Both materials have been FDA approved as non-significant risk devices for filling cavities. In each subject, one tooth with a cavity will be randomly selected to receive one filling material, and a second tooth with a cavity will be randomly selected to receive the second material. The fillings will be observed over a two year period to determine clinical acceptability.

Interventions
The intervention in arm 1 is SonicFill™ 2, a sonic-activated, bulk fill dental composite system for posterior restorations that requires no additional capping layer.
The intervention in arm 2 is Filtek™ Supreme Ultra, a Universal Nanocomposite dental restorative material that is visible-light activated and designed for use in anterior and posterior restorations of any class.
