Clinical Evaluation of Giomer Based Injectable Resin Composite Versus Resin Modified Glass Ionomer in Class V Carious Cavities Over 18-months.

Giomer material has been introduced as the true hybridization of glass ionomer and resin composite, containing surface pre-reacted glass ionomer (S-PRG) filler particles within a resin matrix. Giomer combines caries protection through fluoride release and recharge of glass ionomers and the esthetics, physical and handling properties of resin composite

Resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI) have been developed to combine the advantages of both resin composite and glass ionomer; the good mechanical properties, esthetic of resin composite added to anticariogenic activity and chemical bonding to tooth structure of glass Ionomer.
