objectives: the main disadvantage of fiber posts is their low bond strength to root canal wall. the aim of the present study was to assess the effect of different root canal post space treatments on push-out bond strength of fiber posts to root dentin. materials and methods: after post space preparation in 40 endodontically treated human premolars, the teeth were randomly divided into four expe...

objective: the aim of this study was to compare the microtensile bond strengths (μ tbs) of three core materials with one lithium disilicate reinforced ceramic using two resin cements. methods: three core materials (nulite f® (biodental technologies), filtek z250® (3m-espe), prettau-anterior® (zirkonzhan, germany)) were prepared as blocks (10×10×4 mm3) according to the manufacturer’s instruction...

The use of argon laser (488 nm) has been suggested as a new alternative for polymerizing adhesive materials. This study aimed to evaluate the tensile bond strength of a microfilled composite (A110, 3M) inserted by incremental technique (3 increments of 1 mm) and by single increment (3 mm) polymerized by argon laser for 10, 20 and 30 seconds and halogen light for 40 seconds. Eighty (8 groups of ...

The use of self-adhesive resin cements is accomplished by a simple clinical step, in which the simultaneous demineralization/infiltration of the bonding substrate takes place. However, the self-adhesive resin cements have lower bond strength than conventional resin cements that rely on the application of etch-and-rinse adhesive systems. In order to increase the bond strength of the self-adhesiv...

Early history of dentin bonding Attempts to develop an adhesive system which bonds acrylic resins to the tooth structure started in the early 1950s. In 1949, an adhesive system capable of bonding acrylic resin to the tooth structure was invented by Hagger; it was composed of glycerophosphoric acid dimethacrylate (GPDM) and sulfinic acid as the catalyst. In his patent, shear bond strengths of ac...

abstract statement of problem: there is no enough published data about the shear bond strength of resin modified glass ionomer adhesives on caries-affected primary tooth dentin excavated using minimally invasive systems. objectives: to evaluate the shear bond strength of 2 different adhesives (one resin modified glass ionomer and one resin) using two caries removal techniques on healthy and car...

PURPOSE This study was undertaken to investigate whether use of an adhesive penetration enhancer, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), improves bond stability of fiber posts to root dentin using two two-step etch-and-rinse resin cements. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty human maxillary central incisor roots were randomly divided into 4 groups after endodontic treatment and post space preparation, based on t...

The wet strength of handsheets subjected to dipping treatment by solutions such as glyoxal with Zn(NO3)2 as a catalyst, chitosan, and the crosslinking system of glyoxal and chitosan is studied in this paper. The crosslinking system achieved better wet strength performance than glyoxal or chitosan alone and slightly better than the sum of glyoxal and chitosan in the case of a curing temperature ...

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of desensitizing agents containing different amounts of fluoride on the shear bond strength of a dual polymerized resin cement and a resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) to dentin. MATERIAL AND METHODS One hundred human molars were mounted in acrylic resin blocks and prepared until the dentin surface was exposed. The spec...
