Abstract
Recently, three types of lining materials have been used in dental clinics, conventional powder-liquid glass ionomer cement, light-cured powder-liquid glass ionomer cement and a light-cured single paste type. This study compared the effects of these lining materials on the shrinkage stress of light-cured composite resins during the early setting stage, when polymerization shrinkage occurs. After the second irradiation, the shrinkage stress of composite resins lined with light-cured powder-liquid type cements was approximately 1.0 to 2.2MPa when the lining application was 1.5mm and 0.5mm thick, respectively, demonstrating that a thicker lining application decreased shrinkage stress. The single paste type was only slightly effective in reducing shrinkage stress in composite resins. Although the sample lined with conventional powder-liquid type showed that stresses were less affected by the thickness of the lining, and had the lowest shrinkage stress of all conditions tested, greater exfoliation from the composi
