In many settings, CTG is used as shorthand for a light-cured composite material placed directly into a tooth to repair or protect it. It is commonly used for small restorations, sealing pits and fissures, and conservative repairs around existing dental work. The exact meaning of CTG can vary by clinician and case, so it is sometimes clarified by the brand name or the specific composite type (for example, \u201cflowable\u201d or \u201cinjectable\u201d)."}
