Fourier Transform Infrared–Attenuated Total Reflectance Evaluation of Conventional vs Snowplow Technique on the Double Bond Conversion of Composites Cured Using Varying Intensity Light-curing Units: An In Vitro Study

viscous composite to displace and "plow" the flowable resin into small voids and irregularities along the cavity walls.This method aims to improve marginal adaptation, particularly at the gingival floor, by enhancing the wetting of cavity surfaces and reducing the likelihood of microleakage or gap formation.In doing so, it supports a more seamless interface between the restorative material and the tooth structure.The snowplow technique also
