Abstract:
Resin based composite is currently one of the most popular dental restoratives. Used as a direct restorative material, it displays many beneficial properties such as excellent micromechanical bonding to enamel, polishability and aesthetics. Despite many advances in dentine bonding agents, dentine bonding remains problematic with microleakage and recurrent caries, being frequent clinical sequelae. The open sandwich technique was developed to overcome two problems: deficient bonding of resin composites to dentine, and inadequate strength and fracture toughness of conventional glass-ionomers (GI)

Magister Scientiae - MSc<br>Amalgam bonding agents have been shown to enhance retention of amalgam restorations by mechanical means. However, recent studies showed that the use o glass ionomer cements and resin cements as lining and bonding materials to amalgam restorations will increase the retentive strength of the amalgam restorations, hence reducing the micro leakage and secondary caries. The purpose of this study was to compare the relative retentive strength of conventional amalgam restorations and bonded amalgam restorations using resin adhesive, glass ionomer cements and resin cements.

Recurrence and persistence of microbial infection is one of the main reasons for the revision of dental restorations in the clinic. Failure to control the pathogenic microbiota leads to the formation of caries, which in turn may lead to irreversible pulpal damage,resulting in the need for root canal (endodontic) therapy. Secondary endodontic infections can spread to the surrounding oral tissues and beyond, leaving the patient vulnerable to systemic infection.

Abstract:
The demand for posterior aesthetic restorations has dramatically increased in recent years. Several new materials have been developed with improved aesthetic, adhesive and mechanical properties. However, microleakage elimination, especially if the margins are on dentine or cementum, and attainment of optimum mechanical properties for posterior use, are still questionable. The aim of this study was to investigate microleakage and surface microhardness of a nanofilled, a nanohybrid and an ormocer based nano-ceramic composite restorative material.

In 1995, the Swedish government recommended the discontinuation of amalgam as restorative in paediatric dentistry. Because the mercury content in amalgam constitutes an environmental hazard, its use has declined. The use of resin composites is increasing, but the polymerisation shrinkage of the material is still undesirably high, and the handling of uncured resin can cause contact dermatitis. A new restorative material has recently been developed in Sweden as an alternative to amalgam and resin composite: a calcium aluminate cement (CAC).
