  • Title: [Reinforced glass ionomer restorations in modified Class II cavities].
    Author: Valenzuela V, Stanke F.
    Journal: Odontol Chil; 1989 Apr; 37(1):209-13. PubMed ID: 2518367.
    Abstract:
    We report a conservative treatment for superficial approximal caries which consist in a diagonal approach of the lesion, in order to preserve a significant amount of sound tooth and the use of a new glass ionomer cement reinforced with silver particles (Cermet cement) as restorative material. Following the X-ray diagnosis of incipient caries, the new material was placed on the proximal area, combined with the use of a light-cured composite resin in the occlusal surface, where the cavity design was started. The advantages and difficulties of the technique and the main characteristics of Cermet Cement are described in the present article.
