Retrospective study of survival rate according to the type of dental restoration of proximal caries in maxillary primary incisors

Abstract

cently, owing to the development of restorative materials, various materials have been used for the restoration of maxillary primary incisors. Dental materials used for restoring the proximal caries of maxillary primary incisors include composite resin, a resin strip crown, and a zirconium crown. Each restoration material has its own advantages and disadvantages. However, only a few studies have compared the survival rate of each material. Therefore, in this study, two-year survival rates were surveyed by analyzing approximately 470 teeth treated using various restorative materials. The results of this study may be helpful in the selection of materials for the treatment of proximal caries in maxillary primary incisors.
