AIM To evaluate the bonding temperature effect on dentin-restoration microleakage. The null hypothesis of the study is that the score of microleakage is identical among different adhesive bondings at different temperatures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety caries free maxillary premolars were selected. Class V cavities were prepared on the cemento enamel junction (CEJ) of the buccal sides with en...

BACKGROUND This study compared the shear bond strength of metallic brackets bonded with Single Bond and Assure bonding agents under dry and saliva-contamination conditions. METHODS Sixty sound premolar teeth were selected, and stainless-steel brackets were bonded on enamel surfaces with Single Bond and Assure bonding agents under dry condition or with saliva contamination. Shear bond strength...

background and aims. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dilution and curing methods of an etch-and-rinse adhesive and a self-etching primer from the same manufacturer at early exposure time on cytotoxicity of primary hu-man gingival fibroblasts. materials and methods. primary human gingival fibroblasts were exposed to different dilutions of adper single bond (asb) and adper pro...

OBJECTIVES In this study, we evaluated the antibacterial activity of self-etching adhesive systems against Streptococcus mutans using the agar diffusion method. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three 2-step systems, Clearfil SE Bond (SE, Kuraray), Contax (CT, DMG), and Unifil Bond (UnB, GC), and three 1-step systems, Easy Bond (EB, 3M ESPE), U-Bond (UB, Vericom), and All Bond SE (AB, BISCO) were used. 0...

objective: comparing the effect of repeated opening of the container lid of two dentin adhesive systems, prime&bond; nt (p&b; nt) and ibond (ib), on shear bond strength. materials and methods: intact bovine lower incisors (n=60), fixed in acrylic were ran-domly divided into six groups (n=10). groups i and ii were set as control groups. p&b; nt and ib were applied on the samples after five days ...

The substances used in the root canal treatment, especially sodium hypochlorite solution and oxidant agents, can negatively interfere on the bond strength of the adhesive systems to dentin and on the dental crowns fracture resistance.(1,2).

background and aims. use of porcelain as inlays, laminates and metal-ceramic and all-ceramic crowns is common in modern dentistry. the high cost of ceramic restorations, time limitations and difficulty of removing these restorations result in delays in replacing fractured restorations; therefore, their repair is indicated. the aim of the present study was to compare the shear bond strengths of ...

introduction: in recent dentin adhesive systems etching of enamel/dentin are achieved simultaneously. the objective was to evaluate the microleakage of composite restorations using single bond2 (5th generation), clearfil s3 bond and g bond (7th generation). methods: class v cavities were prepared on  45 extracted intact premolars with gingival margins at the cementoenamel junction and they were...

Aim and objectives: This study aims to determine the effect on shear bond strength (SBS) adhesive remnant score between two color change adhesives (CCAs) with reduced curing time using different high-intensity light emitting diode (LED) units. Materials methods: A total of 108 human first maxillary premolar teeth were randomly allocated into three principal groups (n = 36) based type used. The ...
