The efficacy of lining materials in the reduction of microleakage in class II composite resin restoration using the sandwich technique: A stereomicroscopic study.

Background: The sealing ability of different liners under composite restorations in the reduction of microleakage.

Aim: To evaluate the effects of three different liners in sandwich techniques on gingival microleakage of class II composite restorations.

Materials And Methods: Standardized Class II box cavities were prepared on forty premolar teeth and randomly divided into four groups, = 10: Group A, no liner (control); Group B, Polofil NHT Flow; Group C, Ionolux; and Group D, Fuji VII.
