Abstract: | Microleakage of conventional chemically cured and resin modified glass ionomer cements (GIC), a compomer and a composite resin was studied in vitro in direct class V and class II GIC/composite sandwich fillings. None of the restorative techniques investigated completely resisted microleakage at both the occlusal and gingival margins. The dentinal gingival margins exhibited the highest leakage pattern. The compomer and the resin modified GIC showed a better seal than the chemically cured GIC's. The use of a liner as separating agent between composite resin and GIC in the class II sandwich fillings did not improve the seal. The results suggest that the initial bond obtained immediately after light curing of the resin modified GIC's is stronger than that for chemically cured GIC's. The contradictory results of dye leakage studies reported in the literature are discussed and in vivo evaluations are suggested necessary to predict clinical performance. |
