Description:
Glass ionomers and resin modified glass ionomers are essential to a successful pediatric practice. They are moisture tolerant and forgiving, fast and easy, and above all reliable. In addition, glass ionomers and resin modified glass ionomers have the ability to release fluoride to the restored tooth, as well as to adjacent teeth thereby offering protection against recurrent and residual caries. Kids are awesome, but sometimes completing dental treatment can be a challenge. Wouldn't you rather have your dental materials work with you rather than against you?

• Understand the advantages of glass ionomers and resin modified glass ionomers.
• Recognize the indications for use of glass ionomers and resin modified glass ionomers in pediatric practice.
