Question · asked by 1 review
Low polymerization shrinkage resin composite (silorane, ormocer, bulk-fill or other modified-monomer composite) vs Conventional methacrylate-based resin composite: Marginal discoloration
- Population
- People with permanent posterior teeth restored with class I or II direct restorations
- Intervention
- Low polymerization shrinkage resin composite (silorane, ormocer, bulk-fill or other modified-monomer composite)
- Comparison
- Conventional methacrylate-based resin composite
- Outcome
- Marginal discoloration
At 24 months, marginal discoloration did not differ significantly (7 groups; p = 0.77; ungraded).

How reviews are matched to this question
Reviews word the same question differently. Four decision models (TypeSafe's Jev, Liquid AI's d1-ultra, SubQ Snap and Baseten's Elephant) judged each wording of the population, intervention, comparator and outcome against the others; two wordings count as the same when at least three of them agree and none clearly disagrees, and findings count as this question only when all four elements match. Timing, setting and subgroup never split a question: they are shown on each finding.
