Residual Cement Excess of Composite Versus Glass Ionomer Cement in Implant‐Supported Single Crowns After Different Intraoral Exposure Times—A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Key Points

• The aim is to compare the amount of residual cement left after using composite versus glass ionomer cement in implant-supported crowns.
• Conducted as a randomized controlled trial.
• Involved two types of cement: composite and glass ionomer.
• Measured residual cement after different intraoral exposure times.
• Composite cement showed different residual levels compared to glass ionomer.
• Exposure time significantly affected the amount of residual cement present.
• Findings indicate better management of cement type can reduce excess.
