“…Some of the glass ionomer cements do not have enough radiopacity to be detected in a radiograph (18). This could lead to a failure to remove the cement overhangs, and, in the future, undetected recurrent caries (5,39). In restorations with subgingival margins and in patients with recurrent caries, cements with the highest radiopacity should be used.…”

Context: This study aimed to provide an overview of the literature on the radiopacity of dental materials in order to emphasize its importance. Evidence Acquisition: English-language literature was investigated using manual and electronic searches for the terms "radiopacity," "dental material," "cement," "composite," "ceramic," "endodontic root canal sealer," "bone graft," and "acrylic resin" in the databases of Medline, google scholar, and Scopus up to April 2016. Seventy-nine selected publications, including review articles, original articles, and books, were evaluated. Results: The radiopacity of different dental materials may be lower or higher than that of the replaced tissue depending on the restorative material used. The research revealed that highly-radiopaque materials should not be used in dental restorations, except as bone graft and endodontic root canal filling materials. For most of the dental restorative materials, moderate radiopacity within the range of the replaced dental tissue is recommended. However, the lower radiopacity of polymer-based restorative or prosthetic dental materials is still a significant clinical problem. Conclusions:The author recommends using highly-radiopaque materials whenever possible for treatment of bone defects and root canals. For dental materials that replace clinical crowns, the radiopacity should be within the range of that of the replaced tooth structure (dentin or enamel). The radiopacity of dental cements should be much higher than that of the enamel in order to facilitate detection of the thin cement remnants.

“…Especially for weak and brittle restorative materials like e.g. silica-based ceramics the cement plays a key role for the clinical performance [1]. Several in-vitro and in-vivo studies suggested that all-ceramic restorations should be bonded to tooth structure with resin cements in order to increase their fracture resistance [1][2][3][4].…”

“…silica-based ceramics the cement plays a key role for the clinical performance [1]. Several in-vitro and in-vivo studies suggested that all-ceramic restorations should be bonded to tooth structure with resin cements in order to increase their fracture resistance [1][2][3][4]. Moreover, compared to other traditional luting materials such as glass ionomer, zinc phosphate, and polycarboxylate cements, resin cements have several additional advantages.…”

“…In general, wear problems are of minor importance in classic, full-crown restorations [61] but take on relative significance in adhered, esthetic restorations. In these cases, susceptibility to wear increases when margins are located farther from the gingival area and approach the occlusal area [24,40,55], especially when the cavity margins are near occlusal stops or contact areas.…”

“…To succeed in both, an ideal material should fulfill specific biological, physiomechanical, and handling requirements [61]. Esthetic requirements are also very important, although not in a strictly functional way.…”

Luting materials for fixed prosthesis must fulfill special requirements in order to retain indirect restorations and fully maintain the integrity of abutments. The main requirements (inhibition of plaque accumulation, sealing of interface, possible antibacterial effects, acceptable solubility, wear, mechanical properties, adhesion, radiopacity, film thickness, type of curing, esthetics, storage, and cost) are reviewed to update clinical criteria on the selection of suitable materials. It can be concluded that there is no ideal luting material on the market. Alleged improvements in the physical data of newer materials do not necessarily result in better clinical performance. Only clinical trials can confirm the assumed benefits of materials.
