A new self-curing resin-modified glass-ionomer cement for the direct bonding of orthodontic brackets. 1997

J P Fricker

A new self-curing (chemically-cured), resin-modified glass-ionomer cement, Fuji Ortho (GC International Japan) is based on the technology of hybrid glass-ionomer restorative materials and features chemical adhesion to tooth structure and long-term fluoride release. These materials do not require acid etching of the tooth for adhesion, thereby preserving the integrity of the enamel prisms. This paper describes the clinical use of Fuji Ortho for the direct bonding of orthodontic (metal) brackets.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D001840 Dental Bonding An adhesion procedure for orthodontic attachments, such as plastic DENTAL CROWNS. This process usually includes the application of an adhesive material (DENTAL CEMENTS) and letting it harden in-place by light or chemical curing. Bonding, Dental,Cure of Orthodontic Adhesives,Curing, Dental Cement,Dental Cement Curing,Orthodontic Adhesives Cure
D005899 Glass Ionomer Cements A polymer obtained by reacting polyacrylic acid with a special anion-leachable glass (alumino-silicate). The resulting cement is more durable and tougher than others in that the materials comprising the polymer backbone do not leach out.

D000180 Acrylic Resins Polymers of high molecular weight which are derived from acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or other related compounds and are capable of being molded and then hardened to form useful components. Acrylic Resin,Resin, Acrylic,Resins, Acrylic
D000538 Aluminum Silicates Any of the numerous types of clay which contain varying proportions of Al2O3 and SiO2. They are made synthetically by heating aluminum fluoride at 1000-2000 degrees C with silica and water vapor.

D016910 Orthodontic Brackets Small metal or ceramic attachments used to fasten an arch wire. These attachments are soldered or welded to an orthodontic band or cemented directly onto the teeth. Bowles brackets, edgewise brackets, multiphase brackets, ribbon arch brackets, twin-wire brackets, and universal brackets are all types of orthodontic brackets.

D017220 Dentin-Bonding Agents Cements that act through infiltration and polymerization within the dentinal matrix and are used for dental restoration. They can be adhesive resins themselves, adhesion-promoting monomers, or polymerization initiators that act in concert with other agents to form a dentin-bonding system.
