Objectives
To assess whether in cavities of comparable size and tooth location, Lamination/Sandwich technique restorations have a better survival rate than composite restorations.
Search strategy
PubMed database was searched on: January 5, 2008 using the terms: ("Dental Caries"[Mesh] OR "Dental Cavity Preparation"[Mesh]) AND Lamination OR Sandwich technique AND "Survival Rate"[Mesh] AND ("Composite Resins"[Mesh]) AND ("Dental Restoration, Permanent"[Mesh]). LILACS database was searched on: April 7, 2008 using the terms: Restaur$ and lamin$ and resina.
