Clinical evaluation of a light-cured glass ionomer lining cement

This study was a clinical evaluation of a light-cured glass ionomer lining material (Fuji Lining LC) applied to prepared cavities in 45 primary teeth of children aged 3-5 years. The overall assessment, based on clinical and radiographic findings, was 'good' in 42 cases and 'fair' in the other three cases. The material had no effect on the shade of the composite resin restorative material that was used. The findings indicate that Fuji Lining LC has significant value in clinical practice.
