Abstract Introduction: One-bottle light-cured adhesives systems have variable pH. In addition to ease of use, universal adhesives can be used in various restorations and different substrates. Due to the lack of studies, the purpose of this study was to compare the enamel and dentin micro-leakage of self-cure and light cure composite restorations using a universal bonding system.

This study evaluated the sealing ability of gray MTA-Angelus mixed with propyleneglycol in furcal perforations using a bacterial leakage test. Furcal perforations were created in 30 human mandibular molars using a size 3 round bur The samples were divided randomly into 2 experimental groups (n=10) according to the mixing agent. In G1, the MTA powder was mixed with propyleneglycol, while distill...

BACKGROUND One ideal property of a root-end filling material is its apical sealing ability. The aim of this in vitro study was to assess bacterial and dye microleakage of white and gray mineral trioxide aggregate (WMTA and GMTA), Portland cement and calcium-enriched mixture (CEM) cement used as root-end filling material, and to assess the agreement between these two test methods. MATERIALS AN...

In addition to efforts aimed at reducing anthropogenic production of greenhouse gases, geological storage of CO2 is being explored as a strategy to reduce atmospheric greenhouse gas emission and mitigate climate change. Previous studies of the deep subsurface in North America have not fully considered the potential negative effects of CO2 leakage into shallow drinking water aquifers, especially...

BACKGROUND Microleakage through the interface has been documented in implant systems with titanium (Ti) abutments. There is a current increase in the use of zirconia (Zi) abutments especially in esthetic zone in where higher risk of visible metal color through the peri-implant tissues exists. PURPOSE The aim of the present in vitro study is to evaluate the leakage at the implant fixture-abutm...

3 Device and Data Acquisition Set-up The analyst shall perform device signal tapping, data acquisition, and post-data collection signal processing sufficient to demonstrate leakage of unmasked cryptographic quantities, such as input and/or output messages. Leakage from these values must be used to confirm successful signal tapping (for power) or probing (for electromagnetic analysis) and acquis...
