INTRODUCTION
Since its extensive usage to replace the
dentin ,has given different names
Dentin substitute
Man made dentin
Artificial dentin
Glass ionomer cements are tooth-
colored materials that bond
chemically to dental hard tissues
and release fluoride for a relatively
long period.
They have therefore been
suggested as the materials of
choice for the restoration of carious
primary teeth.
DEFINITION of cement:
- A cement is a substance that hardens to act as
a base , liner , filling material or adhesive to bind
devices or prosthesis to the tooth structure or to
each other.
- philips science of dental
materials (12th ed)
GIC:
- Water based material that hardens following an
acid base reaction between basic
fluoroaluminosilicate glass and an aqueous
solution of polyacids. (Anusavice)
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
The search for improved materials initiated numerous
developments, such that by the 1920s three main
categories of cements had become established: zinc
phosphate cements, zinc oxide eugenol cements, and
silicate cements.

Silica :
It forms the skeletal structure of the glass and increases
the transparency of the glass
Aluminium Fluoride :
It partially replaces silicon in the glass network providing
negative sites, which are vulnerable to acid attack by
H+ leading to decomposition of glass and providing
cement potential.
Fluoride :
It contributes to therapeutic value by releasing fluoride over a
prolonged period of time. It helps to lower the fusion temperature.
It enhances translucency and improves the working characteristics.
It also helps to increase the strength of set cement
Calcium Fluoride :
It acts as a flux and provides opacity to the set cement
Phosphate :
It lowers the melting temperature and modifies the setting
characteristics of the cement.
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES:
Biocompatibility:
The biocompatibility of Glass-ionomer
cements with the living tissues is a subject of
importance because the glass Ionomer cements
have to be in direct contact with dentin
because they were designed to adhere to tooth
materials by molecular bonding.
The adhesion to tooth material endures that
they provide an excellent and enduring
marginal seal, thus eliminating secondary
caries.
Sustained release of fluoride confers resistance
to caries on adjacent tooth material.
Fluoride Release:
The prolonged and substantial release of fluoride
ions from all glass Ionomer cements is of major clinical
significance.
Fluoride ions released from the restorative materials
become incorporated in hydroxyapatite crystals of
adjacent tooth structure to from to structure such as
fluorapatite that is more resistant to acid mediated
decalcification.
The fluoride originates from that used in preparing the
alumino silicate glass, which can contain upto 23%
fluoride.
Thickly mixed cements used for restorations release
more fluoride than thinly mixed ones used for luting
because they contain proportionately more glasses and
hence more fluoride.
DURATION OF FLUORIDE RELEASE:
MIRACLE MIX:
1 Seed & Wilson (1980) invented miracle mix
2 Spherical silver amalgam alloy+ G I C in
ratio 1:7,and mixing it with GIC liqiuid
Improves strength and abrasion resistance of
the cement
Indications: Class I cavities in primary teeth
Core build up material
Lining of class II amalgam restorations
Root caps for teeth under over dentures
As a preventive restoration
Contraindications: Anterior restoration
In areas of high occlusal loading
Advantages:
Ease for placement
Adhesion to tooth structure and anticariogenic
potential
Crown cutting can be done immediately
Increased wear resistance
Disadvantages:
Esthetically poor
Tooth discoloration
Rough surface
COMMERCIAL PRODUCTS
Biocompatibility is controversial
More setting shrinkage leading increase
microleakage and poor marginal adaptation
POLYACID MODIFIED COMPOSITE
RESIN
Also called as compomer
Defined as : material that contain both the
essential components of GIC but in an
amount insufficient to carry out acid base
reaction in dark.
They are developed to combine fluoride
release of GIC and durability of composite
Composition: one paste system containing ion
leach able glass, sodium fluoride, polyacid
modified monomer but no water
Recently 2 paste or powder liquid system is
introduced.
Powder:
Strontium aluminium flurosilicate glass particles, metal
oxides,and intiators
Liquid:
Polymerizable methacrylate/caboxylic acidic monomers
multi functional acrylate monomers and water ;
Setting reaction
1. Initially light curing forms resin network
around the glass
2. After 2 to 3 month there is water uptake
which initiates slow acid base reaction and
fluoride release.
Properties
Adhesion Micromechanical, absence of
water thus no self adhesion
Fluoride release minimal.
Physical properties better than conventional
GIC but less than composite.
Optical properties superior to conventional
GIC.
Indications
Pit and fissure sealant
Restoration of primary teeth
Liners and bases
Core build up material
For class III & V lesions
Cervical erosion / abrasion
Repair of defective margins in restorations
Sealing of root surfaces for over dentures
Reterograde filling material.
Contraindications
Ease of use
Easy adaptation to the tooth
Good esthetics
More working time than RM GIC

CONCLUSION
GICs have come a long ways since its modest
beginning in 1969. Even though research can boast
of substantial improvements, certain essential
properties still seem to be wanting and further clinical
trials are warranted for a majority of these
developments. At this point of time, we are left
wondering if GIC will ever be able to dominate
tomorrows restorative scene or will it go into total
oblivion. Who knows? Only the future will tell. Let us
wish GIC all the best for the coming years.
