Conclusions When marginal imperfections, or non-continuous margins, were detected by SEM, also imperfections beneath the surface could be observed at the tooth-restoration interface with OCT. Restoration loss occurred above the borderline of 50 % of marginal gaps on enamel and dentin. Clinical relevance Marginal discrepancies of adhesive restorations can propagate inside the cavity and lead to restoration loss. (Source: Clinical Oral Investigations)
