CLINICAL EVALUATION OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF SIDE TEETH’S DIRECT AND INDIRECT RESTORATIONS WITH CARIOSIS IN THE OCCLUSION-CONTACT SURFACES
The article presents a comparative clinical assessment of the effectiveness of direct and indirect methods of res-toration of occlusive-contact surfaces of posterior teeth affected by carious disease with the universal microhy-brid photocomposite Gradia Direct GC and nanophoto-composite Filtek Z550, 3M ESPE at various periods of ob-servation: 1 day after recovery; 6 months; 12 months and 36 months. The ef ciency of an indirect photocomposite restoration is much higher than that of a direct restora-tion made of the same materials, the advantages are ob-vious and convincing.
