background: the clinical success of sandwich technique depends on the strength of resin-modified glass ionomer cement (rmgic) bonding to both dentin and resin composite. therefore, the shear bond strength (sbs) of resin composite bonded to rmgic utilizing different resin adhesives versus a gic-based adhesive was compared. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 84 holes (5×2 mm) were pre...

to investigate and compare the amount of fluoride release of conventional, resin modified and nanofilled resin modified glass ionomer cements.tablets of glass-ionomer cements were immersed in deionized water and incubated at 37°c. after 1, 2, 7, 15 and 30 days, fluoride ion was measured under normal atmospheric conditions by fluoride ion selective electrode. buffer (tisab ii) was used to decomp...

abstract statement of problem: there is no enough published data about the shear bond strength of resin modified glass ionomer adhesives on caries-affected primary tooth dentin excavated using minimally invasive systems. objectives: to evaluate the shear bond strength of 2 different adhesives (one resin modified glass ionomer and one resin) using two caries removal techniques on healthy and car...

background and aim: present study was designed to compare the bonding strength of resin-modified glass ionomer (rmgi) and composite resin to mineral trioxide aggregate (mta), mta mixed with na2hpo4 (namta), and calcium-enriched mixture (cem). materials and methods: thirty specimens of each cem, namta, and mta were prepared. composite and rmgi restorations were then placed on the samples (15 sam...

introduction: in different investigations, the destructive effect of ultrasonic scalers on the margins of composites has been studied, but there are very few studies on the effects of ultrasonic scalers on the microleakage of poly-acid modified composite resin and resin modified glass ionomers. the main purpose of this study was to evaluate the marginal microleakage of class v preparations rest...

introduction: coronal leakage seems to play an important role in the failure of endodontic treatment. a double seal over root canal filling has been suggested as a means of improving the coronal seal. several restorative materials have been used in an attempt to produce a coronal barrier. the purpose of this study was to assess gray-coloured mineral trioxide aggregate (gmta), white-coloured min...

statement of problem: since the fluoride releases from materials with the property of releasing fluoride are decreasing gradually, it seems that probably the material rechargeability is more important than their long-term fluoride release. purpose: the objective of this study was to asses the fluoride release and rechargeability of 2 types of fluoride releasing restorative materials, a resin mo...

OBJECTIVE To investigate and compare the amount of fluoride release of conventional, resin modified and nanofilled resin modified glass ionomer cements. MATERIALS AND METHODS Tablets of glass-ionomer cements were immersed in deionized water and incubated at 37°C. After 1, 2, 7, 15 and 30 days, fluoride ion was measured under normal atmospheric conditions by fluoride ion selective electrode. B...
