    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the coronal microleakage of packable composite using conventional incremental and posterior bulk fill flowable composite using Smart Dentine Replacement Single Step technique in the cervical margins of class II cavities in dentine using the dye penetration method. STUDY DESIGN: In-vitroInterventional study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY: Department of Operative Dentistry, Dr. Ishrat-ul-Ebad Khan Institute of Oral Health Sciences (DIKIOHS), Karachi, from November 2012 to April 2013. METHODOLOGY: One hundred and twenty extracted teeth (molars and premolars) were collected and randomly divided into two experimental groups (n=60 each) and were stored in normal saline until used. Fractured samples were excluded. Standardized class II proximal box only cavities were prepared and restored with conventional methacrylate based composite using incremental technique (Group A, n=40) and low stress methacrylate resin based composite SDR using single step technique (Group B, n=40). Samples were sectioned horizontally below the cervical margins and specimen disks were prepared. The specimens were thermocycled and sealed with acid resistant varnish leaving a 1-mm interface around cervical margin and immersed in 2% methylene blue buffered solution for 24 hours. Leakage was scored 0 - 4 and measured in mm. It washed and sectioned to evaluate under stereomicroscope. RESULTS: Mean penetration was 2.4280 ±0.79 mm for Group Aand 1.015 ±0.45 mm for Group B (p < 0.001). Maximum dye penetration score for group Awas 4 and group B was 3. CONCLUSION: SDR technique in combination with total etch technique at the cervical margin of class II restorations improved the marginal seal, when were placed in dentine and thermocycled.
