Comparison and evaluation of the effect of polymerization of resin-modified glass ionomer cement and dual-cure resin cement on the crystalline structure of dentin using synchrotron X-ray diffraction and its clinical correlation with postoperative sensitivity
Abstract:Aim:
To compare the effect of polymerization of resin-modified glass ionomer cement and dual-cure resin cement on the crystalline structure and to correlate it clinically with postoperative sensitivity.
Settings and Design:
The evaluation of crystalline strain in the dentin slabs was done using Synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The post operative sensitivity was measured clinically using Schiff’s sensitivity scale.
Materials and Methods:
