Clinical Study of Dental Cements. VI. A Study of Zinc Phosphate, EBA-Reinforced Zinc Oxide Eugenol and Polyacrylic Acid Cements as Luting Agents in Fixed Prostheses

Clinical study of dental cements. VI. A study of zinc phosphate, EBA-reinforced zinc oxide eugenol and polyacrylic acid cements as luting agents in fixed prostheses.

A clinical trial for the final cementation of crowns and bridges with a reinforced zinc oxide and eugenol cement, a polyacrylic acid cement and a zinc phosphate cement was made over a 3-year period. The study involved 441 patients for whom 547 bridges and 162 single restorations were cemented. The patients were recalled at 6-month intervals for the duration of the study and the restorations wer...

Clinical studies of dental cements. I. Five zinc oxide-eugenol cements.

Zinc oxide-eugenol cements have long been used to cement temporary restorations in teeth prepared for inlays, crowns, or fixed bridges,1'2 and a variety of products is available to the dentist. During the last 25 years, the physical properties of these materials have been studied, and numerous improvements in physical characteristics and manipulative qualities have been achieved.3 't Little inf...

Clinical studies of dental cements. II. Further investigation of two zinc oxide--eugenol cements for temporary restorations.

a compressive strength of 2,200 psi and the other with a compressive strength of 3,500 psi, were the most satisfactory for cementing temporary restorations. The data collected, however, were not sufficient in quantity to differentiate between the two cements. There was the possibility that one or the other of the two cements might prove superior, and this investigation was undertaken to collect...

Clinical studies of dental cements. IV. A preliminary study of a zinc oxide-eugenol cement for final cementation.

Clinical studies of dental cements. 3. Seven zinc oxide-eugenol cements used for temporarily cementing completed restorations.

Seven zinc oxide-eugenol cements with compressive strengths from 200 psi to 8,000 psi were used for temporarily cementing completed inlays, crowns, and bridges. The effectiveness of each cement in a variety of clinical situations is presented. Cement of 1,000 psi met the requirements of typical clinical cases most frequently. The cements of compressive strength 200, 400, 600, 2,200, and 3,500 p...
