Preheated Composite for Prosthetic Cementation to Enamel and Dentin: A Scoping Review.

ABSTRACT: Background and Objectives: Preheated composite resins have been proposed as an alternative to conventional luting agents due to their improved resistance, color stability, and adaptation. This review aims to critically evaluate the current literature on the use of preheated composites as luting agents exclusively on dentin and enamel, focusing on their mechanical behavior, optical properties, and biological effects, in order to determine whether they provide superior clinical outcomes compared with conventional resin cements. Materials and Methods: A comprehensive literature search from 2015 to 2025 was conducted in accordance with PRISMA-ScR guidelines. Eligible studies included in vitro investigations comparing the preheated composite with other luting agents performed on h
