The aim of the study was to examine the marginal adaptation of six tooth coloured restoratives to the tooth hard tissues before and after heat treatment considering the filling method and the placement of the cavity margin. The study showed that 1) the composite marginal adaptation was better with enamel bonding technique than with total bonding technique; 2) the microleakage was less before heat treatment; 3) the best fit was at the occlusal surface and the worst at the gingival tooth-filling junction with the composites; 4) non-composites showed the best adaptation at the approximal enamel-filling junction and the worst at the occlusal surface; 5) the best marginal adaptation could be achieved with Charisma and SpectrumTPH among the composites, and Dyract among the non-composites.
