  • Able to tolerate necessary restorative procedures
  • Provide informed consent
  • Accepts the three-year follow-up period
  • Tooth related criteria:
  • Mature permanent posterior tooth
  • Tooth with vital pulp according to pulp-sensitivity tests
  • Tooth with a deep (primary or secondary) at least proximal and/or occlusal carious lesion presenting a residual dentin thickness with no continuity between the carious cavity and the pulp chamber.
  • In case of proximal lesions, the proximal cervical limit must allow proper placement of a waterproof dental dam (confirmed by a bitewing X-ray radiograph)
  • Tooth requiring a direct partial restorative treatment.
  • Randomization n°2 - Antibacterial vs. non antibacterial adhesive application

  • Nocturnal pain causing insomnia,
  • Tooth suffering dentin hypersensitivity (sharp sudden pain of short duration pain arising from exposed dentin (erosion and/or gingival recession), typically in response to external stimuli (air blast hypersensitivity \[Schiff et al., 1994\], tactile hypersensitivity),

  • Randomization n°2 - Antibacterial vs. non antibacterial adhesive application
  • \- Tooth with pulp exposure after randomization n°1 requiring endodontic treatment (pulp exposure \> 2 mm² and/or haemostasis not obtained).
