This study aims to evaluate the one-year clinical performance of Class II restorations made with high-filling injectable and condensable universal composite resins. The study included 71 patients and 140 restorations. It used G-aenial Universal Injectable (GCI), G-aenial A'CHORD (GCA), Tetric Prime (TP), Filtek Ultimate (FU) composites, and the Clearfil SE Bond adhesive system. Restorations were evaluated and scored according to modified USPHS criteria at seven days, six months, and one year. Chi-square and Cochran Q tests were used for statistical analysis (p\<0.05).
