The effect of finishing techniques on marginal adaption and surface morphology of three glass ionomer cements.
Three formulations of glass ionomer filling materials were finished with discs lubricated with either water or petroleum jelly. No changes in surface micromorphology or marginal adaptation were found which would indicate that petroleum jelly should be used as a lubricant during finishing instead of water.
