This study evaluated the two-year clinical performance of two types of giomers (Beautifil, a surface reaction giomer and Reactmer, a full-reaction giomer), in occlusal (Class I) and cervical (Class V) cavities using the USPHS criteria. Forty-two cervical erosion and carious lesions were restored using Beautifil and Reactmer following manufacturer's instructions. Twenty occlusal cavities were restored with Beautifil. Fifteen patients (mean age 35, ranging in age from 20 to 50 years) participated in the study. The success rate for cervical Beautifil restorations after two years was 80%, while the success rate for cervical Reactmer restorations was 71%. Occlusal Beautifil restorations had a 100% success rate.
