Abstract
This research reviews relevant articles related to microleakage from 1966 to the present. The review discusses what the sensation of microleakage is clinically; how dentin permeability is related to microleakage; how the quality of dentin affects permeability and microleakage; what the effects of bacterial infiltration from microleakage can be, as well as the body's defenses against bacterial infiltration within the tooth complex; how caries and microleakage are related; and how various materials and procedures can be used to limit microleakage.
