Search result: There is still a lack of studies to this topic and only two clinical studies concerning restorations were found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate no difference in the retention rate after 12 and 42 months in Class V and Class II restorations, respectively.

Search result: Ten controlled clinical studies relevant to the topic were found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate: - GIC/RM-GIC has higher caries-preventive effects than composite/amalgam in cases were no additional fluoride was provided to patients have been shown; - Topical fluoride is indicated as caries-preventive; - Mineral containing supplements, with and without casein appear to be at least as effective as topical fluoride in caries prevention; - The effect of Chlorhexidine ge...
Search result: There is still a lack of studies to this topic and only two clinical studies concerning restorations in the primary dentition were found. Clinical outcomes: The results of (conventional) high-viscosity GIC indicate no difference to amalgam while, low viscosity GIC perform significantly worse than amalgam.

Search result: Only three clinical studies were found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate no difference in the longevity between both types of materials.

Search result: Seven clinical studies to topics concerning orthodontic bonding, root- and tooth restorations were found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate a higher cariostatic effect of GIC for orthodontic bonding and tooth restorations in permanent teeth. No difference was found for tooth restorations in primary teeth when compared to fluoride containing composite and root restorations. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic sear...
Search result: Three prospective clinical controlled trials were found. Clinical outcomes: The results indicate that there may be a trend that coating can protect Fuji IX GP Extra against wear.

Search result: There is a lack of clinical studies to this topic: Only three clinical trials were found and traced. Clinical outcomes: The results are conflicting or suggest no difference between conventional GIC and Compomers in regard to their anticariogenic effects.

Search result: Twelve clinical trials were found and traced. Clinical outcomes: The overall results suggest no difference between RM-GIC and Compomers in regard to their anticariogenic effects.

Search result: One clinical trial was found and traced concerning resin-modified GIC (RM-GIC). The material was Fuji II LC (compared to: Tetric Flow and Helioseal F). No trials were identified comparing conventional GIC (C-GIC) with composite resin. Clinical outcomes: The overall results suggest a higher antibacterial effect for RM-GIC up to 6 months.

Search result: 2 trials were found. Clinical outcomes: The results of the laboratory trials suggest that stannous ions have a remineralising (therapeutic) effect on dental tissue (particularly when stannous fluoride was compared to sodium fluoride).

Search result: 12 trials were found. Clinical outcomes: The results of the mainly laboratory trials suggest that zinc has an inhibiting effect on oral bacteria.

Search result: Only trials with low-viscosity GIC were found. Clinical outcomes: The results suggest that cervical restorations placed with chemically cured GICs have good survival rates when compared to composite but are less aesthetic. State of evidence and recommendations: The quality of the existing evidence requires further assessment. [‘Preliminary Systematic Literature Searches’ are based on SYSTEM’s periodic systematic searches of the dental literature and provide first overvi...
Search result: No clinical evidence concerning adverse effects of aluminium, barium or strontium released from GICs were found. A review of the relevant laboratory literature, including a conservative calculation of any potential adverse clinical effect due to aluminium content, concludes that the amount of aluminum that could be leached into the body from glass-ionomer dental fillings is well below the permitted daily dose and almost certainly too small to have a measurable effect. This,...
