- Objectives: Adhesion and marginal adaptation of a claimed bioactive restorative material (ACTIVA BioACTIVE Restorative) to human teeth were compared with those of a resin-modified glass ionomer cement (Fuji II LC) and a control resin composite (Ceram X Mono).Material and Methods: Shear bond strength and marginal adaptation to enamel and dentine were assessed after no pretreatment of the hard tissues or after etching with phosphoric acid (ACTIVA BioACTIVE Restorative and Ceram X Mono) or polyacrylic acid (Fuji II LC). For ACTIVA BioACTIVE Restorative, the effect of applying a self-etch adhesive (Xeno Select, Dentsply Sirona) was also investigated. Data were analyzed using non-parametric tests (α = 0.05).Results: Bond strength and marginal adaptation in enamel and dentine were significantly different among the investigated materials (p<.05). Due to loss of restorations, it was not possible to measure bond strength of ACTIVA BioACTIVE Restorative if no pretreatment was performed or if dentine was etched; however, use of the self-etch adhesive resulted in similar bond strength as Ceram X Mono. Etching improved adhesion of Fuji II LC to enamel and dentine. Regarding marginal adaptation, ACTIVA BioACTIVE Restorative showed the highest wall-to-wall contraction to enamel in all pretreatment groups and the overall highest wall-to-wall contraction to dentine after etching. Due to loss of restorations, no marginal assessment was possible on cavities with margins in dentine when no pretreatment was used. The use of a self-etch adhesive with ACTIVA BioACTIVE Restorative resulted in similar adaptation to dentine compared to the other materials.Conclusion: The self-adhesive property of ACTIVA BioACTIVE Restorative is nonexistent.

- The aim of this study was to compare a new restorative cement intended for posterior restorations, Doxadent, with other types of tooth-colored materials as regards flexural strength and flexural modulus. The new restorative material consists mainly of calcium aluminate. Four hybrid resin composites, one polyacid-modified resin composite, one resin-modified glass ionomer cement, one conventional glass ionomer cement, one zinc phosphate cement, and an experimental version as well as the marketed version of Doxadent were investigated. Flexural strength and flexural modulus were tested according to ISO standard 4049 and determined after 1 d, 1 week, and 2 weeks. Together with the zinc phosphate cement, Doxadent had the lowest flexural strengths (13-22 MPa). The strongest materials were the resin composites and the polyacid-modified resin composite (83-136 MPa). The highest flexural modulus was found for Doxadent (17-19 GPa). The flexural strength of Doxadent decreased significantly from 1 week to 2 weeks, while flexural modulus remained unchanged. The other materials reacted in different ways to prolonged water storage. It can be concluded that the restorative cement Doxadent had significantly lower flexural strength and significantly higher flexural modulus than today's materials used for direct posterior restorations.

- The aim of the present work was to compare a new ceramic restorative cement for posterior restorations, DoxaDent, with other types of tooth-colored materials for direct use as regards hardness and in vitro wear. Four hybrid resin composites, one polyacid-modified resin composite, one resin-modified glass ionomer cement, one conventional glass ionomer cement, one zinc phosphate cement, an experimental version as well as the marketed version of the ceramic restorative cement, were investigated. Hardness of the materials was tested with the Wallace indentation tester and wear was tested with the ACTA wear machine. All tests were carried out on 2-wk-old specimens. DoxaDent was as hard as the zinc phosphate cement and the hardest resin composite. The ceramic restorative cement wore significantly more than the resin composites, the same as the zinc phosphate cement, and less than the glass ionomer cements. No correlation between hardness and wear was found. It can be concluded that the ceramic restorative cement is a rather hard material but with a relatively low wear resistance.
