Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare esthetic, functional and biological properties of two restoration materials used to fill cavities. One material is called "Filtek™ Supreme" which is a traditional tooth colored resin composite that is placed in the cavity in layers and hardened with UV light. The second material is called "SonicFill™ 2," which is a bulk fill composite that uses an ultrasonic hand piece to change the material from a solid into a liquid in order to place it into the cavity. This material can be placed in the cavity in 1 layer, and is hardened using UV light. Both materials have been FDA approved as non-significant risk devices for filling cavities.

In each subject, one tooth with a cavity will be randomly selected to receive one filling material, and a second tooth with a cavity will be randomly selected to receive the second material. The fillings will be observed over a two year period to determine clinical acceptability.
Detailed Description: This study is a randomized, split-mouth, controlled, examiner-blinded clinical evaluation of Class II restorations using a new bulk-fill composite (SonicFill™ 2) and comparing it to Filtek™ Supreme resin composite placed in the traditional incremental technique.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the clinical performance of a sonic-activated, bulk fill composite, SonicFill™ 2, by comparing it to Filtek™ Supreme in the following categories:

Esthetic Properties

* Surface luster
* Staining - surface
* Staining - margin
* Color match and translucency
* Esthetic anatomical form

Functional Properties

* Fracture of material and retention
* Marginal adaptation
* Approximate anatomical form - contact point
* Radio-graphic examination (when applicable)
* Patient's view

Biological Properties

* Postoperative (hyper-)sensitivity and tooth vitality
* Recurrence of caries, erosion, abfraction
* Tooth integrity (enamel cracks, tooth fractures)
* Adjacent mucosa

The hypothesis to be tested is that the sonic-activated, bulk fill composite, SonicFill™ 2, will have comparable results to the traditional incremental technique composite, Filtek™ Supreme, in overall clinical acceptability and in all compared categories
