Occurrence of Z100® complementary treatment on Biodentine cases. Shown is the number of Biodentine cases recovered by Z100® related to the date (expressed in month) when occurred the complementary treatment of Z100®. Black bars represent 1–6 months, grey bars represent 7–12 months and the light grey bars represent after 12 months

Restoration evaluation during the follow-up phase: anatomic form (a), marginal adaptation (b), quality of proximal contact (c), marginal discoloration (d), and surface roughness (e). Shown is the percentage of patients who were attributed the indicated scores at the follow-up visits D15, M6 and M12. The following scores were statistically significantly different between Biodentine and Z100® restorations: for “anatomic form” at each time point (p = 0.004 on D15, p < 0.001 at M6 and M12); for “marginal adaptation” and “point of proximal contact” at M6 and M12 (p < 0.001). The scores for “marginal discoloration” and “surface roughness” were not significantly different
