Measure
Fast-curing composites
Direct restorative treatment with fast-curing composites (Tetric PowerFill/ Tetric PowerFlow): Tooth (teeth) affected by dental caries or with an existing defective filling will be restored. Adhese Universal in self-etch mode, was used to prepare the surfaces for the composite fillings. Tetric PowerFill/ Tetric PowerFlow (test group) was cured for 3 s.
Conventionally applied composites
Direct restorative treatment with conventionally applied composites (Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill/ Tetric EvoFlow Bulk Fill): Tooth (teeth) affected by dental caries or with an existing defective filling will be restored. Adhese Universal in self-etch mode, was used to prepare the surfaces for the composite fillings. Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill/ Tetric EvoFlow Bulk Fill (control group) were conventionally cured for 10 s per increment.

Fast-curing composites
n=51 participants at risk
Direct restorative treatment with fast-curing composites (Tetric PowerFill/ Tetric PowerFlow): Tooth (teeth) affected by dental caries or with an existing defective filling will be restored. Adhese Universal in self-etch mode, was used to prepare the surfaces for the composite fillings. Tetric PowerFill/ Tetric PowerFlow (test group) was cured for 3 s.
