title: The treatment of class III maxillary furcations using a resin-ionomer. A case report.
abstract: This case report uses a resin-ionomer restoration as a barrier in the treatment of a Class III furcation defect. There was a reduction in tooth mobility and plaque count, no bleeding on probing, and a decrease in probing depth with the use of the resin ionomer. The study offers another treatment option in the treatment of a seemingly hopeless maxillary molar.
