conclusions this study suggested that chlorhexidine had no negative effect on the bond strengths of mta-treated dentin. results there were no statistically significant differences between all the experimental groups. the mode of bond failure was predominantly mixed for distilled water groups and cohesive for chx groups. materials and methods sixty dentin disks with a thickness of 1.5 ± 0.2 mm a...

abstract background and aim: one of the major problems with resin composite restorations is the weakness of bonding between the new and aged composites. since appropriate micromechanical retention is necessary for the repair of aged resin composite restorations, the level of surface roughness after sandblasting can be influential in this regard. considering the diverse composition of available ...

background. failure of orthodontic bracket bonds is a common occurrence during orthodontic treatment. different tech-niques have been suggested in the literature to remove resin residues from the bracket bases and enamel surfaces to prepare the surfaces again after debonding. this study attempted to compare multiple rebond shear strengths (sbs) of debonded brackets following preparation with sa...

introduction: one of the clinical problems in orthodontics is the bonding of brackets tocomposite restorations. the aim of this study was to evaluate the shear bondstrength of brackets bonded to composite restorations using excite. methods:forty brackets were bonded to composite surfaces, which were embedded inacrylic resin. one of the following four protocols was employed for surfacepreparatio...

statement of problem: the bond strength of root canal sealers to gutta-percha seems to be an important property for maintaining the integrity of the apical seal which can result in reducing apical microleakage. purpose: the purpose of the present study was to compare the tensile bond strengths of four types of root canal sealers to gutta–percha. this study measured the maximum forces needed to ...

Diffusion bonding of hardmetals (WC-Co) to themselves or with other metallic material (mildsteel) has been evaluated in the present paper. Metallographic studies and mechanical tests have been used to determinate the influence of the bonding parameters (temperature, pressure and time) on the bond microstructure and strength. Different metallic interlayers applied in form of thick foils were use...

introduction: retention of fiber reinforced composite posts depends on the bond strength between post and cement, and cement and root dentin. the aim of this study is to evaluate the bond strength of one type of fiber post to radicular dentin with different adhesive cements. materials and methods: crowns of 44 caries-free, human premolar were removed 2 mm below the cej and the roots were endodo...
