What is sandwich?• Something resembling a sandwich; especially composite structural material consisting of layers often of high-strength facings bonded to a low strength central core.

• A restoration in a tooth in which two restorative materials are used that are chemically bound together.
• Here, a glass-ionomer or flowable composite material is used as a liner under some composite restorations.

Types• Closed sandwich technique: The underlying
material does not come into contact with the oral cavity.

• Open sandwich technique: Usually used for Class II restorations where the underlying material forms part of the axial wall and is exposed to the oral environment.

Glass Ionomer Cement
• Benefits as a liner: –Bonds both to the tooth structure and the
composite, increasing retention form and providing better seal when used at non- enamel margins.– Fluoride in the GI material reduces
potential for recurrent caries.

Flowable Composite• Benefit as a liner:–Acts as a shock absorber, distributing
stresses applied to the more rigid composite–May reduce some of the negative effects of
polymerization shrinkage.

Indications of Sandwich Technique
• Lesions where one or more margins are in dentin-like cervical lesions (class V)
• Class II composite restorations• When any part of the gingival margin of class II
preparation has been extended past the CEJ, and no longer has an enamel cavo-surface

How to do the Sandwich Technique
![Page 11: Sandwich technique](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061522/587459101a28abd53e8b9329/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

1. Prepare Class I/II cavity
![Page 12: Sandwich technique](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061522/587459101a28abd53e8b9329/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

2. Condition the dentin and enamel surfaces using an acid conditioner (preconditioning)
![Page 13: Sandwich technique](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061522/587459101a28abd53e8b9329/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

• Function of conditioner: –Creates stronger bond between tooth and
GIC–Removes smear layer and debris from tooth
surface • Citric acid and polyacrylic acid have been
used as conditioners.

3. Place an increment of GIC over the cavity floor, extending up DEJ around the perimeter of the preparation, or just short of the cavo-margin at the base of proximal box (In Class II)

4. Etch the enamel and GIC

5. Apply bonding agent

6. Light cure and apply composite resin in increments

7. After finishing and polishing…

Conclusion
• It is recommended that the sandwich technique be the restoration of choice when proximal gingival margins extend beyond the cementoenamel junction.
