1. WHY??
• Increase mechanical properties
• Decrease moisture sensitivity
B. CERMET
• Bonding of silver particles to glass ionomer
particles by fusion through high temperature
sintering.
• Used as core buildup, decidous posterior
rest.
C. Resin-modified GIC.
• Glass ionomer cement in which the acid-base
setting reaction has been supplemented by a
polymerization reaction of added resin
components.
• the following criteria must be fulfilled:
i. the acid base reaction must be critical to the
setting reaction.
ii. must contain fluoroaluminosilicate glass,
polymeric carboxylic acid and water.
4. Compomer ( POLYACID MODIFIED
COMPOSITE RESINS )
• Compomer is a composite resin that uses an
ionomer glass which is the major component
of glass ionomer as the filler.
• Small quantity of dehydrated polyalkenoic
acid incorporated with filler particles,
• Setting reaction is
light activated.
