The samples were placed on a digital X\u2010ray sensor along with an aluminum step wedge and a tooth section with similar thickness. The gray scale value was measured in Image J software and converted to mmAl using Curve Expert Pro 2.7 software. Data were analyzed with a two\u2010way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey tests, with the significance level set at 95% (<jats:italic>\u03b1<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.05).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Type of restorative material and thickness had a significant effect on the radiopacity values (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.05).

However, VITA mark II, VITA Enamic, Flexcera Smile Ultra Plus, VarseoSmile TriniQ had lower radiopacity than dentin and their radiographic evaluation would be dependent on the radiopacity of the cement for detection of recurrent caries.
