Tooth coloured adhesive restorative materials are widely accepted and used for the restoration of carious and non-carious cervical lesions. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the solubility and sorption values of compomer (Dyract ®), conventional glass-ionomer(Fuji II ) and resin modified glassionomer (Fuji II LC improved) cements in various beverages such as tea, coffee, coca-co...

PURPOSE This study measured the microtensile bond strengths of 2 tooth-colored restorative materials with and without conditioning of primary teeth dentin, and examined the micromorphology of the debonded surfaces and material-dentin interfaces. METHODS Cylindrical specimens of packable composite resin (PCR) and resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) bonded to dentin of primary teeth wer...

This study investigated the effects of in-office tooth whiteners on the hardness of hybrid (Spectrum TPH), polyacid-modified (Dyract AP), PRG (Reactmer) composites and a resin-modified glass ionomer cement (Fuji II LC). Twenty-seven specimens of each material were fabricated, randomly divided into three groups of nine and treated as follows--Group 1: stored in distilled water at 37 degrees C fo...

Introduction: In restorative dentistry, selecting the proper material is an important factor for clinical success. The objective of this study was clinical evaluation of survival time of three tooth color materials in primary anterior teeth. Methods: In this interventional clinical trial study, 94 deciduous anterior teeth (36 teeth in boys, 58 teeth in girls) belonging to 3-5 year old children ...

BACKGROUND Chlorhexidine gluconate is a widely used antimicrobial agent. Adding chlorhexidine and quaternary ammonium compounds to filling materials, such as composite resins, acrylic resins, and glass ionomer cements increases the antibacterial property of restorative materials. This study includes antibacterial property of glass ionomer restorative cements with chlorhexidine gluconate. AIM ...

To evaluate cytotoxicity of experimental conventional and resin modified glass-ionomer cements on UMR-106 osteoblast cell cultures and cell cultures of NIH(3)T(3) mouse fibroblasts specimens were prepared for every experimental material and divided into: group 1.Conventional glass-ionomer cements: GC Fuji IX GP Fast, GC Fuji Triage and Ketac Silver; group 2. Resin modified glass-ionomer cements...

Background & Aims: Secondary caries is one of the most common problems in restorative dentistry. The release of flouride ions could substantially benefit the tooth enamel and neigboring dentin because flourid can combat caries. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the solubility rate and release of fluoride from tooth-colored restorative materials (Iono CID, Fuji II LC, FugiIX, Fu...

background: microleakage is one of the challenging concerns in direct fi lling restorations. understanding of its related factors is important in clinical practice. the aim of this study was scanning electron microscopy (sem) evaluation of marginal integrity in three types of tooth-colored restorative materials in class v cavity preparations and the effect of load cycling and polishing time on ...
