The present clinical case aimed at showing the different advantages of an innovative resin-modified glass-ionomer cement (FujiCEM Evolve), just like ease of use (the possibility to use the automixing dispenser makes cement application very slightly dependent on the operator’s skill), moisture tolerance (ideal in the presence of iuxta- or sub-gingival margins and requiring no isolation) and versatility (suitable for different restorative materials).
