OBJECTIVE The aims of this study were to evaluate the tensile bond strengths between indirect composites and dentin of 3 recently developed self-adhesive resin cements and to determine mode of failure by SEM. MATERIAL AND METHODS Exposed dentin surfaces of 70 mandibular third molars were used. Teeth were randomly divided into 7 groups: Group 1 (control group): direct composite resin restorati...

With the arrival of self-etch adhesives systems, there has been a rise in interest among clinicians, making it imperative for health professionals to have knowledge of the properties, characteristics, the association as well as the dental structures of these materials, in order to select them and use them correctly. The self-etch adhesive systems show good values of bond strength, microleakage ...

adequate bond strength between glass ionomer cements and composite resin is necessary for the success of the sandwich technique.this study assessed the micro-shear bond strength of composite resin to glass-ionomer cements (gic) using self-etch adhesives with different ph values.one hundred specimens (6×4×2 mm) were made using fuji ii and fuji ii lc gics and treated with different adhesives as f...

This paper describes the development of dentin bonding systems, and describes the current strategies for bonding composite resin materials to dentin. Two main strategies are available--total-etch or self-etch--and each has unique advantages and disadvantages. For each category, simplified systems that reduce the number of application steps are available. Currently, the market is moving towards ...

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...

Objectives Bonding of fiber posts to intracanal dentin is challenging in the clinical setting. This study aimed to compare the effect of self-adhesive and separate etch adhesive dual cure resin cements on the bond strength of fiber post to dentin at different parts of the root. Materials and Methods This in-vitro experimental study was conducted on 20 single-rooted premolars. The teeth were d...
