Methods: A total of 21 specimens for each material (Riva Self Cure. Riva Light Cure, GCP Glass Fill) were prepared using a teflon ring (10x2 mm). These specimens were stored in a desiccator for 24 hours at 37 +/- 1 degrees C and the weight of each sample was measured using a sensitive balance. Afterwards, the specimens were stored in an incubator containing distilled water, mouthrinse with alcohol, and mouthrinse without alcohol at 37 +/- 1 degrees C for one day. The specimens were later dried to a constant mass in a desiccator, and each specimen was measured using a digital electronic caliper. Data were statistically analyzed (p<0.05). Results: Data were evaluated using one-way ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey tests. Water sorption values were found to be significantly higher for the resin-modified glass ionomer cement group than for the high-viscosity glass ionomcr cement (HVGIC) group in all the three different media (p<0.05). HVGIC material showed similar water sorption values for all three media. Conclusion: Compositions of restorative materials play key roles in their water sorption/solubility in different areas.en10.14235/bas.galenos.2020.3805info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGlass IonomerGlass CarbomerSolubilitySorptionMouthrinseGlass-IonomerMechanical-PropertiesResinCementsDegradationStabilityRoughnessImmersionEthanolLightArticle916874N/AWOS:000613760800013425285
