Overview

Compares microleakage in cavity liners using field emission scanning electron microscopy and methylene blue dye.

Key Points

  • To compare the marginal adaptation and microleakage of different cavity liners under composite restorations.
  • Sixty human premolars and molars were used, with Class II cavities prepared.
  • Four groups were formed: Biodentine, RMGIC, TheraCal LC, and controls.
  • After applying liners, cavities were bonded and restored with composite material.
  • Samples were immersed in methylene blue dye and analyzed for interfacial gaps using SEM.
  • TheraCal LC showed the least microleakage, followed by Biodentine and RMGIC.
  • The control group exhibited significant microleakage.
  • SEM analysis revealed no significant difference in marginal adaptation between TheraCal LC and Biodentine.
