Descriptor cementos de resina
Scope note: Cemento dental compuesto de polimetilmetacrilato o dimetacrilato, producido por la mezcla de monómeros de acrílico líquido con polímeros de acrílico y minerales de relleno. El cemento es insoluble en agua y, por tanto, es resistente a los líquidos que se encuentran en la boca, pero también es irritante de la pulpa dentaria. Se utiliza fundamentalmente como agente de recubrimiento para restauraciones fabricadas y temporales. (Jablonski's Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p159)

Scope note: Dental cements composed either of polymethyl methacrylate or dimethacrylate, produced by mixing an acrylic monomer liquid with acrylic polymers and mineral fillers. The cement is insoluble in water and is thus resistant to fluids in the mouth, but is also irritating to the dental pulp. It is used chiefly as a luting agent for fabricated and temporary restorations. (Jablonski's Dictionary of Dentistry, 1992, p159)
