Materials and Methods: A search of the literature was performed using an electronic database, PubMed\/Medline, Web of Science, and Scopus, on papers published between 1980 and 2024. The titles and abstracts of papers that evaluated aspects categorized into tooth-related, patient-related, and dentist-related factors influencing restoration failure were selected and screened. Full-text assessments were conducted, and the extracted data were compiled, summarized, and synthesized. The reference lists of the collected papers were also screened, and relevant citations were included in this review. Data were gathered from clinical and laboratorial studies, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses to provide a comprehensive understanding of restoration longevity. Results: Among the tooth-related factors, multiple-surface restorations, deep margins, tooth location, and tooth vitality significantly impact restoration survival. Patient-related factors such as medical conditions, risk predictors of caries, age, sex, parafunctional habits, smoking, periodontal health, number of restorations, and socioeconomic status all play crucial roles. Regarding dentist-related factors, the decision-making process, age, experience, and dentist manual dexterity are vital aspects. Furthermore, the technique used, including isolation methods for moisture control, as well as the type of dental practice (large group vs. small practice), notably influenced the restoration survival. Conclusions: The longevity of dental restorations is influenced by a complex interplay of tooth-related, patient-related, and dentist-related factors. Strategies to improve restoration outcomes should consider all these multifactorial contributors. Continuing professional education, diligent patient guidance on the factors that influence restoration survival, careful material selection and restorative technique, and tailored individual treatment are crucial factors to reduce failure rates and improve the lifespan of restorations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/dj12090291","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,12]],"date-time":"2024-09-12T06:23:43Z","timestamp":1726122223000},"page":"291","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":40,"title":["Multifactorial Contributors to the Longevity of Dental Restorations: An Integrated Review of Related Factors"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8942-7091","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria Jacinta Moraes Coelho","family":"Santos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry, Western University London, London, ON N6A 3K7, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elham","family":"Zare","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Interdisciplinary Medical Science, Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry, London, ON N6A 3K7, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-3003-1341","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Peter","family":"McDermott","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry, Western University London, London, ON N6A 3K7, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9876-3898","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gildo Coelho","family":"Santos Junior","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry, Western University London, London, ON N6A 3K7, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"252","DOI":"10.4103\/0970-9290.84298","article-title":"Microleakage of bonded amalgam restorations using different adhesive agents with dye under vacuum: An in vitro study","volume":"22","author":"Parolia","year":"2011","journal-title":"Indian J.
