Title: [Comparative studies on fissure sealing: composite versus Cermet cement]. Author: Hickel R, Voss A. Journal: Dtsch Zahnarztl Z; 1989 Jun; 44(6):472-4. PubMed ID: 2517111. Abstract: Fifty two molars sealed with either composite or Cermet cement were compared. The composite sealant was applied after enamel etching using a rubber dam. Before sealing with Cermet cement the enamel was only cleaned with pumice powder and sodium hypochlorie and the material was applied without enamel etching. After an average follow-up of 1.6 years composite sealants proved to be significantly more reliable. Cermet cement sealings showed defects more frequently.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
