This clinical trial sought to evaluate the effectiveness of alternative treatment for replacing amalgam and resin-based composite restorations with marginal defects. The study recruited 66 patients with 271 restorations. Each restoration was assigned randomly to one of five groups: Sealant, Refurbishing, Repair, Replacement, and Untreated. Two clinicians evaluated the restorations according to USPHS/Ryge criteria at baseline (Kappa 0.74) and one year after the treatment (Kappa 0.81). The scoring of the margins improved (from bravo to alfa) after the experimental treatments. None of the treatments showed significant degradation of the margins during the 12-month observation period.
