Resin Cement

Dental Cements are materials that set intra-orally and that are commonly used to join a tooth and the prosthesis.1 In literature, the primary function of a dental cement is to fill the space between restorative material and tooth preparation, as well as to enhance the resistance to restoration dislodgement during function. The long-term success of a restoration is heavily dependent on the proper selection and manipulation of dental cements. Loss of retention has been found to be one of the most common causes of restoration failure.
