Resumen
The aim of this clinical retrospective study was to evaluate the survival and risk factors
associated with failures of composite resin restorations placed in anterior and posterior
primary teeth. A total of 212 restorations in primary teeth from records of 76 high caries
risk children (36 girls and 40 boys) attended by undergraduate students in the Pediatric
Dentistry Clinic at the Federal University of Santa Maria were included in the study.
The restorations’ longevity up to 6-year of follow-up was assessed using the KaplanMeier survival test. Multivariate Cox regression analysis with shared frailty was used to
evaluate the clinical and individual variables associated with failures (p<0.05). Mean
survival time was 4.3-year (95%CI: 4.0-4.6). The survival of the restorations reached
35.3% up to 6-year of evaluation, with an overall annual failure rate of the 18.8%.
Restorations performed in teeth with pulp treatment had a risk of failure 2.16 times
more than restorations placed in vital teeth (95%CI: 1.02-4.58, p=0.04). Patients who
didn't use fluoridated toothpaste had 6.12 times more risk of failure in their restorations
(95%CI: 1.47-25.49, p=0.01). Composite resin restorations placed in high caries risk
children presented limited survival after 6-year of follow-up. The fluoridated toothpaste
use was a protection factor while pulp treatment was a risk factor for restoration failure.
