DENTALCEMENTS
are a classification of dental materials that
are continually used in dentistry. The
American Dental Association and the
International Standards Organization (ISO)
have teamed up to classify dental cements
according to their properties and their
intended uses in dentistry.

CLASSIFICATION OF CEMENTS
Type I: Luting agents that include
permanent and temporary cements.
Type II: Restorative applications.
Type III: Liner or base applications
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
5/77
LUTING CEMENTS
A material that acts as an adhesive to hold
together the casting to the tooth structure.
Luting agents are designed to be either
permanent or temporary.
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
6/77
PERMANENT CEMENTS
For the long-term cementation of cast
restorations such as inlays, crowns, bridges,
laminate veneers, and orthodontic fixed
appliances.
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
7/77
TEMPORARYCEMENTS
Temporary cements are used when the
restoration will have to be removed. Most
commonly, temporary cement is selected for
the placement of provisional coverage.
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
8/77
TEMPORARY CEMENT
Calcium hydroxide (Dycal)
Zinc oxide eugenol (IRM)
Nonzinc oxide eugenol (Cavit,Tempond)
Zinc polycarboxylate (Duralon) Resins (Neo-Temp)

BASES & LINERS
Materials used either toprotect the pulp or
aid pulpal recovery or both.
Pulpal irritants:
Heat generated during drilling
Some ingredient of various materials
Heat produced by restorative materials
Forces transmitted to dentine through material
Galvanic Shock Ingress of noxious products and bacteria
through microleakage
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
10/77
SELECTING BASEORLINER
Should be based on anatomical,
physiological, and biological response
characteristic of the pulp
Also based on the physical and chemical
property of the material considered for use.
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
11/77
PULPRESPONSE
Is reversibly proportional to the thicknessof remaining dentine.
Cutting odontoblasts extension that havenot been exposed to any irritating episodes
of caries or tooth wear would lead to deathof these cells and their extensionsDeadTracts.(if remaining dentine is 1.5 mm andmore.
If the cutting was atraumatic and coolant
was used,replacement odontoblasts wouldnot be formed hencefoth no reparativedentine would be produced.therefore baseor liners are very important to seal thoseempty tubules.
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
12/77
GENERAL RULE
Its desirable to have at least 2mm
dimension of bulk between the pulp and
metallic restoration, this bulk may include
remaining dentine, liner ,or base.
Since composite is thermal insulator and
passively inserted, a liner is indicated only
if the excavation is judged to be within 0.5
mm of the pulp,Therefor (BW is important)

LINERS
Are relatively thin layers ofmaterial(0.5mm) used primarily as barrier
between the restoration and the remaining
dentine following cavity preparation.
Liners should not extend to cavosurface
unless sandwich technique is indicated.

These are suspension ofcalcium hydroxide ,
zinc oxide, and other material in resinous
solution
Used under tooth colored restoration
Have greater physical integrity
Have chemical neutralizing capacity for acids
Dissolve in oral fluids causing severe
microleakage, therefore they should be applied
on dentine only, and do not extend to enamel. Dry slowly
Provides thermal protection due to its
increased thickness,with metallic restoartion
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF

CALCIUM HYDROXIDE (CH)USES
pulp-capping
a protective barrier between the dentin
pulp complex and acid-containing cements
and restorative materials, cements, and
other base materials.
It will not inhibit the polymerization of
acrylic and composite restorations
Improved physical properties with higher
compressive strength and lower solubility.

CLINICALIMPLICATIONS
Serves as an irritant stimulating the
formation of reparative dentin; and
Second, the therapeutic affect of CH may
be due to its ability to extract growth
factors from the dentin matrix. The result is
the formation of a dentin bridge, which
allows pulpal repair.
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
27/77
WHICHISTHEBESTLINER?
The ability of calcium hydroxide tostimulate the formation of reparativedentine when it is in contact with pulpaltissue makes the material of choice for very
deep excavation. Liners and bases in very deep excavation
should be applied without pressure.
Ca(OH) should be 1mm thickness nearpotential or actual exposure .
In these instances the base should be usedin putty-like consistency ,so that less freeacid ,and elimination of the rotary andpressure.
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
28/77
CAVITY BASES
Those cements commonly used in thicker
dimensions beneath permanent
restorations to provide for mechanical,
chemical, thermal protection of the pulp.
Bases can be considered as restorative
substitutes for the dentin that was removed
by caries and/or the cavity preparation.

ZINC-OXIDE EUGENOL
Zinc-Oxide has pharmacological action onpulpal tissue,while Eugenol has topicalanesthetic property(obtunding effect)
As Intermediate restorative material provide anexcellent seal of the cavity preparation
ability of ZOE to reduce postoperativesensitivity
Has long setting time:The clinician should allowapproximately 24 hours to pass prior to placing
amalgam above a ZOE base. Low compressive strength(brittle)
Eugenol interfers with polymerization of resinmaterial therefore can,t be used beneath,andsubstituted with Ca(OH)2.
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
33/77
REINFORCED ZOE
chemical composition of ZOE is typically:
Zinc oxide, ~69.0%
White rosin, ~29.3%
Zinc acetate, ~1.0% (improves strength) Zinc stearate, ~0.7% (acts as accelerator)
Liquid (Eugenol, ~85%, Olive oil ~15%)
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
34/77
ZINC-PHOSPHATE CEMENT
Powder:Zinc-Oxide
Liquid Phosphoric acid
Electrical and thermal insulator
Stay acidic after application ,therefore should beabove Ca(OH)2 or ZOE in deep cavity
Has low linear of coefficient of thermal expansion
Compressive strength 100mpa
The material is acidic when placed (pH ofapproximately 3.5), but rises to a pH of 6.9 after
a week.
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
35/77
CLINICALCONSIDERATION
packages of ZP contain 20% more liquid
than is necessary to combine with the
powder. This is because some of the liquid
will evaporate during use. This
specification applies to zinc phosphate, zincpolycarboxylate, and GI together since they
all are water-based. This is important for
the clinician to consider. Since the water
can evaporate, these materials can becomeviscous, leading to difficulty in seating
crowns. Furthermore, loss of water will
result in a decrease in the pH of the liquid,
making the cement less biocompatible

ZINCPOLYCARBOXYLATE CEMENT
Powder :Zinc Oxide
Liquid:Polyacrylic acid
As electrical and thermal insualtor
Has low linear of coeffecient of thermalexpansion
Has adhesive bond to dentine only
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
38/77
ZPC(DURELON )
Zinc polycarboxylate adheres to the tooth
via an interaction between the carboxylic
acid and the calcium in the dentin
Polyacrylic acid has a very low pH (1.7), but
the pH approaches neutrality upon mixingwith the powder
the relatively large size of the polyacrylic
acid molecule and/or its ability to combine
with protein prevents it from diffusing intodentin tubules

leakage
antimicrobial properties
ability to adhere to and seal the dentin
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
42/77
RMGI
GIs should not be used as pulp-capping
agents. In a clinical study, GI was found in
the pulp chamber, which triggered a
persistent inflammatory response and
appeared to prevent the formation of dentinbridges.
They are extremely sensitive to moisture
when GI comes in contact with water, there is a
decrease in its physical properties. In addition, resin-modified GIs expand after
coming in contact with water.

PRECAUTION..
caution is needed because certain materials
are not compatible with each other. For
example, Yang and Chan demonstrated that
varnishes can reduce the surface hardness
ofglass ionomers.

7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
45/77
CLINICAL CONSIDERATION
Selection Base or Liner depends on:
Thickness of remaining dentine
Adhesive property of both liner and base
Type of restoration placed aboveWhen Dentine >2mm ,no need for pulpal
protection ,and varnish is used against
microleakage at the intersurface.
When remaining dentine is < 2mm ,Ca(OH),ZOE as liner or base .Eugenol acts as
seadtive to the pulp. ZOE contraindicated
under resin restoration since it counteracts
polymeralization of resin
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
46/77
CLINICALCONSIDERATION
When remaining dentine is 0.5-1mm or near
the pulp, use 1mm layer of Ca(OH)2 or MTA
to encourage reparative dentine.
Adhesive cement liners are used after
removal of extensive carious dentine, GIbonds to Enamel and dentine while
polycarboxylate bonds to dentine only

CAVIT
suitable means of provisionally sealing
prepared cavities
For sealing in medicinal inserts. They
serve as dressings for the dentine surface,
so protecting the periodontium and pulpagainst harmful influences.
In the case of root canal treatment, they
also prevent infection of the peri-apical
tissue caused by saliva.

MINERALTRIOXIDEAGGREGATE (MTA)
root-end filling,
perforation repair,
vital pulp therapy,
apical barrier formation for teeth with necrotic
pulps and open apexes.
Hydroxyapatite crystals form over MTA when it
comes in contact with tissue fluid. This can act as
a nidus for the formation of calcified structuresafter the use of this material in endodontic
treatments

MTA
The compressive strength of MTA increasedwith time in presence of moisture.
Radiopacity is given by Bismuth Oxide.
MTA is less radiopaque than Super EBA, IRM,
amalgam, and conventional gutta-percha, but in thesame range as zinc oxideeugenol-based root canal
sealers.
better marginal adaptation to the root end

RESINCEMENTS
They are very versatile (generally being ofhigh compressive and tensile strength.
possess low solubility
different viscosities and different shades
When resins are used as a cavity liner, it is
important to remember that it is the dentin
bonding agent (examples: Clearfil SE Bond,
Kuraray America; Excite, Ivoclar Vivadent)
that comes into contact with the dentin
7/27/2019 Dental Cements PDF
72/77
CLINICALCONSIDERATION
Can,t be used for direct pulp cap(likeGI)since they do not promote the formationof dentinal bridge,however they elicit apersistent mild inflammatory pulpalresponse
adhesives placed below amalgamrestorations reduce microleakage,thussupporting the current trend toward thispractice of using resin as a liner.
Lining cavities with copal varnish is fasterand less technique-sensitive than usingadhesive resin, and resins cost more andhave a limited shelf life.

CONCLUSION
In terms of pulpal health, it is more beneficialto conserve tooth structure when possible than
to remove that same tooth structure and
replace it with a restorative material,
Studies demonstrated that a 0.5-mm thicknessof remaining dentin reduces toxicity of a
material by 75%, and if that thickness is
increased to 1.0 mm, a reduction of 91% is seen.
An intact smear layer helps occlude the
dentinal tubules and therefore provides abarrier to bacterial invasion,and liner is
required to coat this fragile layer to reduce
microleakage.
