dc.description.abstract |
Restoring the esthetic and functional characteristics of anterior teeth predictably and reliably has been an important goal for clinicians. Resin-based composites are the material of choice for the restoration of anterior teeth because of their adhesive and esthetic properties. The objective of this study was to assess the retention of composite restorations placed in anterior teeth. In this study 200 patients were included with both gender of age ranging from 15 to 70 years among which 100 were males (50%) and 100 were females (50%). Out of 200 patients, 165 (82.5%) showed success and 35 (17.5%) showed failure of retention of anterior composite restorations after a follow up period of 5 years. In conclusion, the anterior composite restorations have very good retention rate and age and gender of the patients have no significant effect on the retention of anterior composite restorations. |
