How does glass ionomers cements chemically bind with the tooth structure?
Glass ionomer cements chemically bond to tooth structure through a process known as acid-base reaction. The cement contains acidic groups that react with the calcium and phosphate in the tooth structure to form stable chemical bonds. This results in a strong and durable bond between the cement and the tooth.
What dental cement causes least irritation to the pulp?
Glass ionomer cement is known to cause the least irritation to the pulp among dental cements. It releases fluoride, which can help protect the tooth structure and promote remineralization.

Why glass ionomer cement mixed with agate spatula on mixing pad?
Mixing glass ionomer cement with an agate spatula on a mixing pad helps prevent contamination of the cement from metal ions that could interfere with the setting reaction. Glass ionomer cements are sensitive to contamination, so using non-metallic instruments like an agate spatula and mixing on a pad that won't introduce metal ions ensures the material sets properly and bonds effectively to the tooth structure.
