Sumario: | INTRODUCTION: Dental caries has been the most common disease affecting the human population. Once cavitated, the disease requires restoration. Dental adhesives used to bond composite resins to tooth structure have evolved over the last several decades. Composites were developed to meet the requirements of durable esthetics restorative material. The process of bonding occurred due to micromechanical interlocking between hydroxyapatite of enamel and resin. Over a period of time, bonding to enamel has become a reliable procedure. However, bonding to dentin has proven to be less predictable. In order to overcome the challenges, dental adhesive systems have evolved through several generations with changes in chemistry, mechanism, number of bottles, application techniques, and clinical effectiveness. CASE DETAILS: The “self-etch” system is especially attractive to pediatric dentistry because of its “fewer steps” and “lesser time.” One product launched as a self-etching self-adhesive flowable composite Constic (DMG, Germany), a new three- in -one flowable composite that combines etching gel, bonding agent, and flowable composite in one single product which has multiple benefits over conventional products. Such a material can be of true advantage as it allows for single-step application, less technique sensitivity, and reduced chair time. In light of this knowledge, this paper will focus on two commonly performed procedures in the general practitioner's office, that is, the placement of small class I composite resin restorations and the placement of pit and fissure sealants on permanent molars in pediatric patients. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: The advantage of this material is less technique sensitivity and reduced chair time. HOW TO CITE THIS ARTICLE: Pruthi T, Pandit IK, Gugnani N, et al.
