Many of the dental cement research needs for the future should be related to the biological environment, organic films, living organisms, and experimentation in vivo. Research in these areas will create new opportunities for physical scientists to collaborate with biological scientists, establishing research teams with composition quite different from those in the past. That compositional change could be the major change in dental cement research for the balance of the 1980's.
