Ultrastructure of gingival sulcus mucosa after application of hybrid heliocomposites.
Hybrid heliocomposites were used for repair of the carious tooth crown. Ultrastructural study of mucosa biopsy specimens from sites adjacent to the filling 3 weeks after treatment showed that Charisma, Herculite, and Esterfil Ca filling materials led to degenerative changes in the mucosa, while Filtek Z-250 heliocomposite caused no pathological changes in the gingiva at the site of contact.
