Abstract
Clearing various characteristics of resinmodified glass ionomer for filling: Fuji II LC (GC), Vitremer (3M), Photac-Fil (Espe) and Fuji II LC Improved (GC) and poly-acid composite resins for filling: Dyract (Dentsply/ DeTrey), Compoglass (Vivadent), Ionosit Fil (DMG) and Xeno (SR-5111) Sankin, marginal gap in the enamel cavity, shear bond strength to enamel and dentin, and flexural strangth following storage in water for 1 day of the products were examined. And they were compared with those of a conventional glass ionomer, Fuji II (GC) and a composite, Silux+ Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (3M).
A resin-modified glass ionomer was the shortest marginal gap width and greatest bond strength value in all materials, was the middle value of flexural strength between a mconventional glass ionomer and a composite. A poly-acid composite resin was the greatest flexural strength value in all materials, was the middle value of bond sterngth between a composite and a conventional glass ionomer and was the widest marginal gap width in all materials.
