TYPES OF
CEMENTS

ZINC PHOSPHATE ZINC OXIDE EUGENOL ZINC POLYCARBOXYLATE GLASS IONOMER RESIN-MODIFIED GLASS IONOMER PROVISIONAL CEMENTS
IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT NO
CEMENT WILL PERFORM TO IT’S OPTIMAL
LEVEL CLINICALLY WITHOUT AN ADEQUATE
PREPARATION THAT INCLUDES (2)
GOOD
RESISTANCE AND RETENTION FORM.

BIOCOMPATIBILITY RETENTION MECHANICAL PROPERTIES-withstand occlusal forces, high tensile strength MARGINAL SEAL LOW FILM THICKNESS EASE OF USE RADIOPACITY AESTHETICS
FIRST CEMENT APPEARING IN DENTAL LITERATURE
ZINC
PHOSPHATE
IS THE STANDARD WHICH OTHER CEMENTS ARE ASSESSED (GOLD STANDARD).
ZINC
PHOSPHATE
ZINC PHOSPHATE advantage (4)
THIN FILM THICKNESS AND PROVEN RELIABLITY.
LOW SOLUBILITY WHICH RESISTS BREAKDOWN IN THE MOUTH
LOW THERMO-CONDUCTIVITY. PROVIDES LESS SENSITIVITY TO HOT AND COLD
LONG SHELF LIFE
ZINC PHOSPHATE disadvantage (6)
INITIAL LOW pH-can lead to pulpal irritation
NO CHEMICAL ADHESION/BOND
NO ANTIBACTERIAL PROPERTIES
POOR ESTHETICS ( for all porcelain )
LONG SETTING TIME: 2.5-8 MINS.

— TYPES OF ZOE, WHICH DIFFER IN THEIR
PROPERTIES AND USES.
TWO
TYPE I-
is less strong and is used for temporary
restorations and for temporary cementation.
TYPE II-
is reinforced and is stronger. It is
referred to as an intermediate restorative. It
can last for 6-12 months in the mouth. Used for
a tooth that cannot be restored immediately
BENEFIT OF ZOE IS –
NEUTRAL pH. IT HAS A
SEDATIVE OR SOOTHING EFFECT ON THE DENTAL
PULP. A PROTECTIVE OR INSULATING BASE OR
LINER IS NOT REQUIRED.
ZINC OXIDE EUGENOL (ZOE)- CEMENT NOT USED UNDER COMPOSITE OR ACRYLIC RESTORATIONS BECAUSE (2)
EUGENOL IS
INCOMPATIBLE WITH THESE MATERIALS AND ALSO
RETARDS THEIR SETTING PROCESS.

THE POWER IS INCORPORATED INTO THE LIQUID IN INCREMENTS OR ALL AT ONCE.

3-5
MINUTES
DEVELOPED IN 1968 TO CIRCUMVENT PULPAL
PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH LOW Ph.
