Abstract: | The aim of the present study was to evaluate the marginal microleakage of the newest generation of composite resin restorative materials. Class V restorations were prepared in human extracted teeth. Different combinations of restorative materials were used. All the materials tested showed marginal microleakage along the dentinal walls, suggesting that the adhesion value is not sufficient to counteract the composite shrinkage and to reduce the marginal space. |
