The aim of this study was to assess the tensile bond strength of four adhesive systems to enamel and dentin: Clearfil Liner Bond 2V - C, Prime&Bond NT/NRC - PB, Single Bond - SB and All Bond 2 -AB. For such purpose, 40 sound human molars were selected. Crowns were bisected in a mesiodistal direction and each half was ground until flat enamel (E) or dentin (D) surfaces were obtained. A total of ...

OBJECTIVES Microleakage of composite restorations at the cervical margin placed apically to the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) is still a concern. This study evaluated the effect of simultaneous bonding application on cervical sealing of nano-ionomer/silorane- or methacrylate-based composite open sandwich Class II restorations in the modified technique compared with that of conventional bonding. ...

AIM This study evaluated the push-out bond strength of cemented fiber posts after deproteinization of root canal dentin walls with NaOCl. The effect of the application of an antioxidant solution (sodium ascorbate) was also evaluated. MATERIALS AND METHODS A three-step etch-and-rinse (Scotch-bond - 3M Espe) and a one-step self-etching adhesive (Xeno III - Dentsply Caulk) were evaluated. Thirty...

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of flueride on resin bonding to artifieially carious enamel. Speeimens frorn demineralized human enamel sections were prepared using two commereially available adhesives (Clearfil SE Bond, Kuraray; Single Bond, 3M} and a composite resin (Clearfil AP-X, Kuraray) according to manufacturers' instructions. They were then immersed in phosph...

the incorporation of boehmite nano-particles and its effects on the mechanical properties and bond strength of an experimental dental adhesive were studied.an adhesive solution containing ethanol, bis-gma, tmptma, hema and photo-initiator system (camphorquinone and dmaema) was prepared. silanized boehmite nano-particles were incorporated into the adhesive in different concentrations of 0, 0.2, ...

background: the clinical success of sandwich technique depends on the strength of resin-modified glass ionomer cement (rmgic) bonding to both dentin and resin composite. therefore, the shear bond strength (sbs) of resin composite bonded to rmgic utilizing different resin adhesives versus a gic-based adhesive was compared. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 84 holes (5×2 mm) were pre...

The purpose of this study was to compare the dentin bond strength of three self-adhesive cements with smear layer pretreatments using a calcium-chelating agent (EDTA) and deproteinizing solution (NaOCl) and to evaluate their interfacial characteristics. Smear layer-covered dentin surfaces were pretreated with EDTA for 60 s, NaOCl for 5 and 15 s, or none. Three self-adhesive cements; Clearfil SA...

OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the influence of a multi-mode universal adhesive (MUA) containing silane (Single Bond Universal, 3M EPSE) on the bonding of resin cement to lithium disilicate. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty IPS e.max CAD specimens (Ivoclar Vivadent) were fabricated. The surfaces were treated as follows: Group A, adhesive that did not contain silane (ANS, Porcelain Bonding Resin,...

OBJECTIVES Extensively destroyed teeth are commonly restored with composite resin before cavity preparation for indirect restorations. The longevity of the restoration can be related to the proper bonding of the resin cement to the composite. This study aimed to evaluate the microshear bond strength of two self-adhesive resin cements to composite resin. MATERIALS AND METHODS COMPOSITE DISCS W...
