Microfiltración y estabilidad de color de los ionómeros de vidrio

The book "Microfiltration and Color Stability of Glass Ionomers" offers a comprehensive examination of the properties of glass ionomer cements, which have been continuously developed since their discovery in the 1970s to meet patient needs. These cements are particularly used in pediatric dentistry for the treatment of Class V cavities due to their ease of handling and advantageous properties. These include chemical bonding to enamel and dentin, as well as long-term fluoride release, which is significant for patients at high risk of caries. A central theme of the book is marginal integrity, which is crucial for the success of restorations. The book highlights the challenges that can arise from insufficient sealing and their effects on material stability and color. Research in this area is particularly relevant, as there is a lack of comprehensive studies on microfiltration and color change in temporary teeth.
