The resin-modified glass ionomer materials are hybrid materials of traditional glass ionomer cement with a small addition of light-curing resin, and hence exhibit properties intermediate to the two, with some characteristics superior to conventional glass ionomer materials. Generally, they have the advantages of both such as adhesion to tooth structure, esthetics, fluoride release and rapid hardening by visible light. Issues surrounding other physical properties, such as the mechanism of adhesion, sensitivity to water, long-term wear and strength, need to be addressed and substantiated. There are other considerations, which are not features of the conventional materials, but are of importance with the resin-modified glass ionomer cements i.e. light-curing, which require further research to provide evidence of their behavior. The future for this group of materials is unknown, but the currently available materials appear to be promising.
树脂改性玻璃离子材料是传统玻璃离子水门汀与少量光固化树脂的混合材料，因此呈现出介于两者之间的性能，某些特性优于传统玻璃离子材料。一般来说，它们兼具两者的优点，如对牙齿结构的黏附性、美观性、氟释放以及通过可见光快速固化。围绕其他物理性能的问题，如黏附机制、对水的敏感性、长期磨损和强度等，需要加以探讨和证实。还有其他一些考量因素，它们并非传统材料的特性，但对于树脂改性玻璃离子水门汀很重要，即光固化，这需要进一步研究以提供其性能的证据。这类材料的未来尚不明朗，但目前可用的材料似乎很有前景。
