The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dentin bonding durability of three HEMA-containing one-step self-etch adhesives after one-year water storage and to measure the amounts of their water sorption/solubility. OptiBond All-In-One (OP), Bond Force (BF) and Clearfil S³Bond (S³) were applied to the dentin surfaces according to manufacturers' instructions. Bond strengths to dentin were dete...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of a low-viscosity bonding resin applied over a self-etching adhesive system on the microtensile bond strength (microTBS) of indirect restorations. Comparisons were made using One Up Bond F (OB) self-etching adhesive system, Single Bond (SB) one-bottle adhesive system and Scotchbond Multi Purpose Plus (SMP) bonding component. Thirty bovine inc...

There has been dramatic progression in the adhesion of dental adhesives and resins to enamel and dentin in the 40 years since Buonocore1 introduced the technique of etching enamel with phosphoric acid to improve adhesion to enamel. The first dental adhesives bonded resins to enamel only, with little or no dentin adhesion. Subsequent generations have dramatically improved bond strength to dentin...

BACKGROUND Dentin desensitizers may change the properties of smear layer and have adverse effects on the bonding performance of adhesive systems. AIM The aim of this study was to compare the effect of bioactive glass (BG), hydroxyapatite, and diode laser desensitization on shear bond strength of resin composites to dentin at different time intervals. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-two caries...

The reaction of three-dimensional cultures of pulp-derived cells in a dentin barrier test was recorded after exposure to All-Bond 2, Prime & Bond NT, Syntac SC, Syntac Classic, and Prompt L-Pop. The materials were applied on bovine dentin disks in a perfusion chamber, and the experiments were performed with (0.3 ml/h, 2 ml/h) and without perfusion of the pulpal part of the chamber. The cell rea...

Background and Aim: Microleakage is a drawback of composite restorations and it is more noticeable in dentinal walls. Despite advances in dentin bonding agents, no adhesive can completely eliminate microleakage and provide a hermetic seal. This study aimed to compare microleakage of three resin bonding agents namely a universal adhesive, two-step self-etch system and two-step total-etch system....

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the 5 year clinical dentin bonding effectiveness of two HEMA-free adhesives in Class V non-carious cervical lesions. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 169 Class V restorations were placed in 67 patients with a self-etching adhesive (G-Bond; 67), a 3-step HEMA and TEGDMA free etch-and-rinse (cfm; 51) and a control HEMA-containing etch-and-rinse adh...

The shear bond strength of composite resin to porcelain was investigated to optimize variables for bonding porcelain laminate veneers. Scanning electron microscopy was initially used to examine the surface configuration of porcelain prepared under various conditions. A factorial experiment was undertaken to determine the effects of three different bonding methods on both etched and non-etched p...

This in vitro study evaluated the immediate and 6 months microshear bond strength (µSBS) of different adhesive systems to sound and eroded dentin. Sixty bovine incisors were embedded in acrylic resin and ground to obtain flat buccal dentin surfaces. Specimens were randomly allocated into two groups: sound dentin (immersion in artificial saliva) and eroded dentin (erosive challenge following a p...
