title: Microleakage of high-strength glass ionomer: resin composite restorations in minimally invasive treatment.
abstract: Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) has been investigated as an alternative caries treatment. The technique involves removal of loose tooth structure with a spoon excavator, followed by placement of an adhesive restorative material, often a high-strength glass ionomer. This study compares the microleakage of a high-strength glass ionomer/resin composite and two occlusal resin composite restoration techniques.
