Microleakage and Polymerization Shrinkage of Various Polymer Restorative Materials
Journal of Dentistry for Children, 08/18/08
Gerdolle DA et al. - Within the experimental conditions of this in vitro study, the microleakage was significantly lower at the enamel margins than at the cementum margins for the four restorative materials tested. The ormocer and the packable resin composite exhibited the best sealing ability, as well as the lowest polymerization shrinkage. It could not be demonstrated in this study, however, that the higher the polymerization shrinkage was, the lower the marginal sealing ability was.
