“…Inaccurate diagnoses, failure to comply with the technical requirements of the procedure, overtreatment in case of failures, the wrong indication of the materials for specific clinical situations and the underestimation or ignorance of the causes may culminate in premature failure of the restoration 5,15,16,20 .…”

“…The incorrect indication of replacing restorations is responsible for about two-thirds of unnecessary direct restorations placement. This may result in overtreatment and the loss of sound dental tissue 20,21 . The repair, sealing of margins, recontouring and resurfacing of existing restorations should be part of the proposed treatment for dental restorations.…”

ResumoIntrodução: A cárie dentária é o principal motivo para a instalação e troca de restaurações. A preservação destas em condição clínica satisfatória é um desafio, apesar da evolução dos materiais e técnicas cirúrgico-operatórias. Objetivo: Investigar o tempo de sobrevida e características técnico-operatórias das restaurações dentárias diretas de adultos em Teresina, Piauí. Material e método: A coleta de dados ocorreu de setembro de 2009 a janeiro de 2010, em clínicas de tratamento odontológico sem fins lucrativos. Os dados técnicos e operatórios do preparo cavitário e da restauração foram coletados no momento da substituição. A sobrevida foi calculada a partir da data de instalação que constava no prontuário. Os dados foram registrados em um formulário criado com esse fim. Kruskal-Wallis e Mann-Whitney foram empregados para comparar a sobrevida dos diferentes tipos de restaurações e o teste qui-quadrado para associações entre variáveis qualitativas, ambos com nível de significância de 5%. Resultado: As 262 substituições de restaurações deficientes estavam em 139 pacientes. A mediana de sobrevida das restaurações foi 2 anos. As restaurações de amálgama tiveram sobrevivência maior que as de resina composta (p=0,004). O material restaurador mais substituído foi resina composta (66,4%). A maioria das restaurações localizava-se em dentes anteriores e em preparos proximais. Conclusão: As restaurações de amálgama teve sobrevida maior que as de resina composta. As variáveis técnico-operacionais não influenciaram na taxa de substituições. As restaurações diretas possuem reduzido tempo de sobrevida o que pode estar associada à filosofia adotada pelo serviço para o tratamento fornecido.Descritores: Falha de restauração dentária; restauração dentária permanente; pesquisa baseada na prática. AbstractIntroduction: The presence of dental caries is the main reason for the placement and replacement of restorations. Maintaining restorations to a satisfactory clinical condition is a challenge, despite the evolution of materials and surgical operative techniques. Objective: To investigate the survival time and technical-operatory characteristics of dental restorations among adults in Teresina-PI. Material and method: Data collection was carried out from September 2009 to January 2010 at a non-profit dental service. Data were collected at the moment of restoration replacement. The sample consisted of 262 defective restorations in 139 individuals. Survival time was calculated using the placement date that was registered on the individual's dental form. Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests were used to compare the survival time of the different types of restorations and the chi-square test was used to assess the association between qualitative variables, at a 5% significance level. Result: The median survival time of the restorations was 2 years. The survival time for amalgam was higher than for composite and glass ionomer cement (p=0.004). The most replaced dental material was the composite (66.4%). The majority of the replaced ...

“…Experience may have an influence on skill and criteria for replacement [36,37,39]. The influence of experience on the longevity of resin composite restorations was studied in three selected articles and our study [27,29,30,32].…”

“…At present, longevity of restorations is estimated by three kinds of clinical study: a prospective study ; a retrospective longitudinal study with censored cases [26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33]; and a retrospective cross-sectional study on failed restorations only (without censored cases) [34][35][36][37][38][39]. Although the prospective studies can provide more reliable evaluation than the retrospective studies, prospective clinical trials are limited in number since they require many years with regular recalls in order to achieve sufficient clinical validation.…”

“…In addition, the prospective studies may not reflect the real-life of restorations in general dental practice or daily living since they include many biases such as operator-and patient-related factors [1,7,29,30,35]. This is supported by the fact that secondary caries rarely occurred in the prospective cohort studies [5,9,[12][13][14]19,[21][22][23][24][25] though it is the principal reason for failure of restorations in daily general practice [29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39]. Retrospective studies are less defined than prospective ones, however, certain advantages of the retrospective studies are that many restorations can be examined in a relatively short time and more clinicians and patients are involved [30,35].…”

In daily practice, an evidence-based approach is becoming more expected of dentist.However, only outcomes obtained from clinical studies are accepted as evidence. Although many clinical trials have been performed, most of them are short-term studies, whereas long-term studies are likely to provide more reliable evidence. In this article, prospective studies and retrospective longitudinal clinical studies on resin composite restorations were systematically searched with PubMed for literature in English and with Japana Centra Revuo Medicina (Ichushi Web) for articles in Japanese. Finally, 21 long-term (8 years or more) prospective studies and nine retrospective studies with survival analysis were selected and reviewed from more than 561 papers. The overall findings suggest that at least 60% of resin composite restorations will last more than 10 years when proper materials are applied correctly. Patient-, operator-, material-and tooth-related factors may have an influence on the survival of resin composite restorations. Appropriate maintenance policies based on MI concepts are claimed to enhance the longevity of resin composite restorations.
