Influence of Photoactivation Source on Restorative Materials and Enamel Demineralization

Abstract: Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of the photoactivation source on the polymerization depth of restorative materials and its effects on resistance to enamel demineralization. Background data: Argon-ion laser (AL) irradiation itself provides a reduced depth of caries lesions in sound enamel. Methods: Eighteen human teeth were sectioned into 36 blocks and distributed into two groups according to the respective restorative material: resin-modified glass ionomer material (RMGI) (… Show more

“…In order to overcome these limitations, the resin-modified GIC (RMGIC) was developed. In addition to the acid-base reaction, RMGICs have a polymerization reaction as they have resin monomers in their composition [5,6]. In most cases, this polymerization is photo-initiated.…”

“…Furthermore, the resin-modified GIC (RMGIC) was developed to overcome early moisture sensitivity and lower mechanical properties associated with conventional GICs [8,9]. In addition to the acid-base reaction in the presence of water, photoinduced polymerization reaction occurs in RMGICs during setting, as they contain resin monomers [10].…”
