This report documents treatment and repair of three carious teeth that were restored with a new dental repair material that features the characteristics of both resin-modified glass-ionomer restorative cement (RMGI) and resin-based composite (RBC). The restorative products presented are reported by the manufacturer to be the first bioactive dental materials with an ionic resin matrix, a shock-a...

Abstract Objective The purpose of this study was to determine the bond stability and change in interfacial ultra-structure a conventional glass-ionomer cement bonded dentin, with without pre-treatment using polyalkenoic acid conditioner. Methods occlusal dentin surfaces six teeth were ground flat. Glass-ionomer either or conditioning. sectioned into 1-mm2 stick-shaped specimens. specimens obtai...

Different adhesive systems · used in cervical erosions without cavity preparation were evaluated. The material comprised three groups of patients who received a total of 146 restorations placed by the same operator (JK). Each patient within a group received the same number of restorations with two different types of materials. Type 1: a capsulated glass-ionomer cement (FujiCap 2). Type 2: no ac...

This study examined the effect of varying delayed polymerization times in combination with bracket manipulation on shear bond strength (SBS), degree of conversion (DC), and adhesive remnant index (ARI) score when using a resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI) adhesive. Specimens were divided into three groups of clinically relevant delay times (0.5, 2, and 4-min) to simulate the delay that frequen...

AIM This study evaluated and compared the role of newer dental adhesives to bond composite resin to the resin modified glass ionomer (RMGIC) liner. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-six specimens were prepared on acrylic blocks, with wells prepared in it by drilling holes, to retain the RMGIC. The specimens were randomly divided into three groups of 12 specimens each. In group I, a thin layer of a...

OBJECTIVE STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Adequate bond strength between glass ionomer cements and composite resin is necessary for the success of the sandwich technique. PURPOSE OF STUDY This study assessed the micro-shear bond strength of composite resin to glass-ionomer cements (GIC) using self-etch adhesives with different pH values. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred specimens (6×4×2 mm) were m...

This literature review article addresses the types and the main components of different etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesive systems available in the market, and relates them to their function, possible chemical interactions and influence of handling characteristics. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images are presented to characterize the interface between adhesives and dentin. Adhesive sys...

The current study evaluated the bonding ability of composite to glass ionomer cement (GIC) using three different bonding systems. One hundred samples of composites bonded to GIC were prepared and divided into five groups. In Group A, the composite was bonded to GIC after the initial setting of the GIC being employed as a total-etch adhesive. In Group B, the self-etch primer was employed to bond...
