Two independent examiners evaluated the restorations at baseline and 6-month recall according to the modified US Public Health Service Criteria. Negative replicas at baseline and 6 month recall were observed under scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to evaluate surface characteristics. Data were analyzed statistically.Results: After 6 months, 106 restorations were evaluated in 36 patients (recall rate=97.3%). Results: After 6 months, 106 restorations were evaluated in 36 patients (recall rate=97.3%). None of the restorations were failed but 1 GIC restoration was repaired and 1 was polished due to small chippings at the proximal surfaces. No significant differences were observed between the two restorative materials for any criteria evaluated (p>0.05). Color of GIC restorations were seemed unsatisfactory for six restorations and scored as bravo at the control and 6 months recalls (p>0.05). SEM observations exhibited successful surface and marginal adaptation characteristics during the 6-month period.Conclusions: Glass-ionomerbased restorative system exhibited similar and clinically successful performance as micro-hybrid composite resin in the restoration of large Class II cavities after 6 performance as micro-hybrid composite resin in the restoration of large Class II cavities after 6 months.Student PresenterDisclosure Statement:The submitter must disclose the names of the organizations with which any author have a relationship, the nature of the relationship, and the clinical or research area involved.
