Martha,

Glass ionomer I've heard of, and yes, it's fragile. If I remember right,
it's not suitable for molars. If he thinks ionomers are superior to
Iso-whatever, then I'm probably not missing much by not knowing what they
are. I still prefer procelain. (Oh, and by the way, the aluminum oxide
is just a small %'age, like 1 or 2, I think, of the total procelain
matrix, Doug.)
>Are Temple oranges very different from navels and valencias? The
>navel oranges on the tree in my backyard are too delicious for words!
No comparison! For one thing, Temples have seeds, as any self-respecting
fruit ought to have! Way more delicious than valencias and navels.
Happy New Year!
