ABSTRACT:
The present invention features ionomer compositions containing nanofillers that provide the composition with desirable aesthetic properties (e.g., optical translucency). The compositions can be used in a variety of dental and orthodontic applications, for example, as adhesives, cements, restoratives, coatings and sealants.
