  • Title: The glass ionomer-dentine bond. A comparison of destructive and non-destructive assessment.
    Author: Henderson LJ.
    Journal: Singapore Dent J; 1996 Jul; 21(1):23-5. PubMed ID: 10597179.
    Abstract:
    The traditional laboratory testing (mechanical testing and microleakage testing) of the adhesion of restorative materials to dentine is of a destructive nature. A non-destructive laboratory method of testing the material-dentine bond using ultrasonics has been devised and compared to mechanical shear testing. Similar results were obtained with both testing methods. It this study thermocycling was shown to have no statistically significant effect on the glass-ionomer dentine bond.
