| Abstract | Zinc oxide-eugenol cements have long been used to cement temporary restorations in teeth prepared for inlays, crowns, or fixed bridges,1'2 and a variety of products is available to the dentist. During the last 25 years, the physical properties of these materials have been studied, and numerous improvements in physical characteristics and manipulative qualities have been achieved.3 't Little information has been available, however, on the clinical behavior of the zinc oxideeugenol cements. No data have been collected that correlate physical properties with the clinical behavior of these cements in the oral environment, and the clinician has relied on his own judgment in the selection of a cement for a particular instance. It has come to be recognized that the compressive strength of a cement has a relationship to its ability to hold a restoration in place; the stronger the cement, the more securely the restoration is retained. For temporary crowns, a cement is required that has sufficient strength to hold a variety of restorations in place but that is not so strong as to make removal of the restoration difficult. This study was an attempt to find the optimum strength for a cement for outing temporary restorations. Clinical evaluation presents difficulties in controlling all the factors involved, the retention quality of the preparation, the adap- |
