Since the development of glass ionomer cements nearly three decades ago, these materials have found increasing applications in clinical dentistry. In spite of substantial improvement GIC's have short comings with regard to moisture sensitivity, wear resistance, flexural strength and final finish. Even though chemical adhesion and fluoride release are major benefits, conventional GIC's are restricted to special indications like class III or class V cavities. Advancements have occurred to overcome various shortcomings of the conventional GIC's and thereby increasing their properties, substantial progress has been noted in the advanced modifications of GIC's and newer advances also have been shown to have better properties, and there have been ongoing research regarding finding better modifications which are under trial.
