Light-cured adhesive systems have been widely used in dental clinical practice. Bonding to dentin remains poorly understood and unreliable. Previous studies have shown that quality of hybrid layer (HL: interface between adhesive layer and dentin) is very important to the reliability of whole bonding. Raman spectroscopic studies of the adhesive distribution in HL indicate that monomers do not co...

statement of problem: the achievement of a good and durable dentin/composite resin bond is an important task in restorative dentistry. the application of acid conditioners and dentin bonding agents is an accepted method to enhance this bond strength. pretreating of dentin surface by laser irradiation seems to be a supplemental way to obtain better results, since lased dentin is more roughened a...

It has been reported that the adhesive resin layer of all-in-one adhesives is permeable and allows the formation of a water channel or water tree. The effects of a smear layer on the ultra-structure of bonding interface created with three all-in-one adhesives and a resin composite were evaluated in this study. Dentin surface was ground with of 180-, 600-, or 2000-grit SiC paper to produce diffe...

ozone is a triatomic molecule consisting of three oxygen atoms. it is applied to oral tissues in the forms of ozonated water, ozonated olive oil and oxygen/ozone gas. this paper presents a brief review on the chemistry of ozone as well as its medical and dental applications focusing on its use in endodontics. ozone’s antimicrobial activity, its effect on dentin bonding, toxicity and contra-indi...

Purpose: To compare and evaluate the shear bond strength of three different fifth generation dentin bonding agents used with composite resin and to determine the mode of bond failure in each case. Materials and methods: Forty-five freshly extracted human permanent molars were used and the specimens were divided into three test groups (N = 15) namely group A = Excite, group B = single Bond, grou...

OBJECTIVES CAD-CAM system is popular because of high esthetic and short fabrication time. But, there is limited information available about the microtensile bonding of luting cements to CAD-CAM inlays and to dentin. The aim of this study was to examine the bond strength of CAD-CAM (Cerec 3) and pressed-ceramic (IPS Empress 2) inlays to dentin surface by microtensile testing using two luting cem...

abstract introduction: the mineral content of dentin increases with age and its primary structure is altered. these changes may have unknown effects on efficiency of adhesive systems. the aim of this study was to find the effect of aging on dentin bonding agents. methods and materials: fourty eight extracted human premolars were divided into 2 groups under 15 years old & 2 groups over 45 years ...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bonding ability of five current self-etching adhesives to caries-affected dentin on the gingival wall. Seventy extracted human molars with approximal dentin caries were employed in this study. In order to obtain caries-affected dentin on the gingival wall, grinding was performed under running water. Following which, specimens mounted in acrylic bloc...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of dual bonding technique by comparing microshear bond strength between two different luting methods of resin cement to tooth dentin. Three dentin bonding systems(All-Bond 2, One-Step, Clearfil SE Bond), two temporary cements (Propac, Freegenol) were used in this study. In groups used conventional luting procedure, dentin surfaces were left u...

The purpose of this experiment was to determine the hardness values of the hybrid layer and its surroundings through the continuous use of a microhardness measuring device. Black's Class V cavities were prepared in nine dog teeth. The cavities were divided into four groups according to the dentin adhesive system applied. The adhesive systems were: "Bond One System", "Liner Bond II sigma System"...
