Assessment of micro leakage for conventional GIC, ormocer and cention N restorative materials Materials and method: In this research, class I cavities were prepared on 48 human premolars. Samples were divided into 3 groups of 12 samples in each group as; Group 1- Conventional GIC, Group 2- Cention N, and Group 3-ormocer restorative materials. Samples were then dried and thermocycled. 2% Methylene blue was used to colour the teeth. After being longitudinally sectioned, every tooth was microscopic examined. Result: The mean micrleakage score for conventional GIC, cention N and ormocer was 2.24±1.349, 3.45±0.675 and 1.12±0.357 respectively. Mircoleakage was found least in ormocer group and maximum in Cention N group (p<0.001). Conclusion: We found highest microleakage with Cention N followed by conventional GIC and least with Ormocer
