background: the aim of this study was to compare push-out bond strength of a new bioceramic endodontic sealer, endosequence bc sealer (brasseler usa, savannah, ga), used with gutta-percha in the presence or absence of phosphate-buffered saline solution (pbs) within the root canals. materials and methods: forty single-rooted human teeth were prepared and randomly divided into four groups. sample...

New Schiff-base compound (E)-4-methoxy-N-(4-hydroxybenzylidene) aniline has been synthesized from the reaction of 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde with 4-methoxyaniline in methanol at 50ºC, and has been characterized by using elemental analysis and FT-IR spectroscopy. The crystal structure of the title compound has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction study. The title compound crystallizes ...

background and aims. various factors influence the interfacial bond between the fiber posts and root canal dentin. the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of pre-warming of resin cement on the push-out bond strength of fiber posts to various segments of root canal dentin. materials and methods. in this in vitro study, 40 single-rooted human premolars were decoronated and underwe...

Introduction: Due to concerns about histological caries and recurrent caries after the use of sealants, adhesive systems containing fluoride and antibacterial agents have been proposed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the microleakage of sealants after the use of antibacterial chlorhexidine solution on etched enamel with and without the use of fifth- and sixth-generation adhesive systems....

Studies have reported the discoloration of dentin beneath amalgam restorations. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the bond strengths of adhesive resins to this discolored dentin are lower than those to normal dentin, and are related to the presence of metallic ions or corrosion products. Amalgam-filled extracted human teeth were used. After the removal of amalgam, the di...

the formation constants of the species formed in the systems fr + glycine + dioxovanadium(v) + and h+ + glycine have been determined in aqueous solutions of methanol at 25 °c and constant ionicstrength, using spectrophotometric and potentiometric techniques. it was shown thatdioxovanadium(v) forms two mononuclear 1 : land 1:2 complexes with glycine. the formationconstants in various media were ...

While one might assume that the force to break a chemical bond gives a measure of the bond strength, this intuition is misleading. If the force is loaded slowly, thermal fluctuations may break the bond before it is maximally stretched, and the breaking force will be less than the bond can sustain. Conversely, if the force is loaded rapidly it is more likely that the maximum breaking force is me...
