The aim of this article is to review the development of glass ionomer cements (GICs) over the last 40 years and look critically at both their clinical advantages and disadvantages. Primarily, it will explore the future development of both GICs and related ion-releasing materials in relation to improved mechanical properties, capability to prevent secondary caries and promoting remineralisation of hard carious dentine left after minimal cavity preparation procedures, including atraumatic restorative treatment. This article will also introduce new materials with a focus on degradable fluorine-containing glass fillers, including alkasite glasses and fluorine-containing bioactive glasses, that have the capability to raise the pH and promote remineralisation with the potential for fluorapatite formation.
本文旨在回顾玻璃离子水门汀（GICs）在过去 40 年中的发展，并批判性地审视其临床优缺点。主要探讨了 GICs 及其相关离子释放材料在改善机械性能、预防继发龋以及促进最小化备洞后遗留的硬质龋再矿化方面的未来发展，包括微创修复治疗。本文还将介绍新型材料，重点介绍可降解含氟玻璃填料，包括铝硅酸盐玻璃和含氟生物活性玻璃，这些材料具有提高 pH 值和促进再矿化的能力，并有形成氟磷灰石的潜力。
