Abstract:
Chemical adhesion of resin based restorative materials to dentin using adhesives presents a complex problem due to the different nature of polymeric materials and tooth substance. It is indicated that the problems arise mainly from properties of the filling material, eg polymerization shrinkage. Glass ionomer cements exhibit excellent clinical retention in spite of the low bonding forces found in laboratory tests.
