· Glass ionomer cement

Application process - Can support amalgam condensation
· Placed only on dentin - Can support overlying amalgam restoration
· Placed directly over the deepest portion of the preparation - No moisture
o Indirect pulp capping - Discard liquid when cloudy or forms crystals
o Direct pulp capping - Phosphoric acid solution absorbs water, do not leave bottle

ZINC OXIDE EUGENOL
- a very old and yet useful cements Modified zinc phosphate cement
- Its obtundent property makes it useful for sedative and tem- 1. Copper cement
porary filling - contains: cupric oxide (black copper cements), cuprous
- Can withstand amalgam condensation forces oxide(red copper cement)
- Supports overlying amalgam - Others may contain cuprous iodide or silicate
- Biocompatibility is very good - Low powder liquid ratio
- May cause hypersensitivity reaction - Highly acidic
- Highly solubility and lower strength
Types - Slight bacteriostatic and anticariogenic properties
4. Unreinforced ZOE 2. Silver cements
- Contains a small percentage of a salt such as silver phos-
phate
Applications:
- Advantage over zinc phosphate cement has not been estab-
• Only used when strength and solubility are not critical
lished
• Formulation for temporary restorations
3. Flouride cements
• Provisional cementation of crowns and foxed partial denture
- higher solubility and lower strength
• Cavity liner in deep cavity preparation
- Reduced enamel solubility and potentially has an anticario-
genic..
2. Reinforced ZOE
- ...
- stronger and less soluble
4. Silicophosphate cements
- Additives include alumina, rosin and polymethyl methy-
- combination or zinc phosphate and silicate cements
lacrylate resin
- Translucent, improved strength, duento
Application:
Types
• used for temporary and intermediate bases
1. Type 1(fine grain)
• Used as cavity liners and base materials
- used for the permanent cementation of cast restorations such
• Cementing agents for crowns and fixed partial dentures
as crowns inlays inlays and bridges. This material creates the
• Provisional(waiting for something to happen) restorative
very thin film layer that is necessary for accurate
material
2. Type 2 (Medium grain)
- For deep cavity preparation base
3. ZOE-EBA
- stronger and less soluble
Polycarboxylate cement
- Used for intermediate bases
- power liquid system
- Additive include orthobenzoic acid
- Cement which has evidence of adhesion to the tooth
Application:
- Not as acidic as zinc phosphate cement and is biocompatible
• cementation of inlays, crowns and fixed partial denture
- Not as strong as other cements and has a moderate solubility
• Provisional restorations/ same as interim restoration
- PH of the cement is 1.7
• Used as base and lining materials
- Produce minimal irritation to the pulp (biocompatible)

Disadvantages —————————————————————————
- Has low pH(highly acidic) GLASS IONOMER
- Irritating to the pulp - Formulated in 1970’s
- Cement set into a hard brittle material - Combination of silicate and polycarboxylate cement
- Use of an acid-reactive glass powder together with a poly-
acrylic acid solution leads to a translucent, stronger cement
- Used as a luting and restorative/base material
Types
Type 1
- For the cementation of metal restorations and direct-
bonded
Type 2
- Designed for restoring cavity preparations, ideal for
filling the areas of erosion near the gingiva
Type 3
- Used as liners bases and dentin bonding
Type 4
- Pit and fissure sealant (Common to kids)
Type 5
- Orthodontic Cement
Type 6
- Core build up

Considerations for glass ionomers


- Powder is an acid soluble calcium. The slow release of fluo-
ride from this powder aids in inhibiting recurrent decay
- Causes less trauma or shock to the pulp than many other
types of cements
- Low solubility in the mouth
- Adheres to a slightly moist tooth surface.
- Has a very thin film thickness, which is excellent for seating
ease.
