- Abstract
The article presents a comparison between two groups of adhesive dental restorative materials including glass ionomer cements (GIC) and dentinal bonding agents (DBA). Studies have found considerable microleakage at dentin in cavities filled GIC as compared to microleakage found with DBA. It has also been found that GICs are more effective than DBAs in reducing dentinal and cementum microleakage. An experiment, performed to evaluate the effect of these new restorative materials on marginal leakage in Class V cavities, found that the percentages of teeth with microleakage at enamel and dentinal surfaces were 11.1% and 62.0%, respectively, while microleakage was present in 5.6% of all enamel sections.
