title: Microleakage evaluation of two newly introduced hybrid glass ionomer cements.
abstract: This study evaluated the microleakage of Photac-Fil Aplicap (ESPE) and Fuji II LC (GC) glass ionomer cements. Polished Class V restorations were compared with non-polished restorations. No measurable microleakage was detected after thermocycling and staining in India ink dye. Polishing the restorations had no effect on the degree of microleakage.
