Abstract

ISO 4049:2009 specifies requirements for dental polymer-based restorative materials supplied in a form suitable for mechanical mixing, hand-mixing, or intra-oral and extra-oral external energy activation, and intended for use primarily for the direct or indirect restoration of cavities in the teeth and for luting.

The polymer-based luting materials covered by ISO 4049:2009 are intended for use in the cementation or fixation of restorations and appliances such as inlays, onlays, veneers, crowns and bridges. This International Standard does not cover those polymer-based luting materials that have an adhesive component within the structure of the material.
