Background: There is a technique in the industry called resin procedures like resin coating. For example, epoxy resin is injected to repair cracks in concrete of 0.2 mm or larger. In addition, a casting product can be strengthened when resin is injected to fill in a blowhole. A vacuum can be utilized to allow the resin to penetrate into every corner. In this study, we investigate whether bondin...

introduction: the aim of this study was to compare the micro-shear bond strength of composite resin on superficial and deep dentin after conditioning with phosphoric acid and erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (er:yag) laser. methods: thirty human molars were selected, roots were removed and crowns were bisected to provide a total of 60 half-crowns. specimens were ground to expose superficial...

AIM The aim of this study is to assess the effect of 35% sodium ascorbate on microtensile bond strength of dentin immediately after bleaching with 35% hydrogen peroxide. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 25 sound human 3rd molars were collected. Teeth were randomly divided into five groups for different treatments: Group I [bleaching + immediate bonding (i.e., restoration)], group II (bleachin...

background: microleakage is still one of the defects of resin composites that can lead to treatment failure; and re-bonding technique is one of the effective ways to reduce it. this study evaluated the effect of re-bonding with a surface sealant or a dentin adhesive on microleakage in class v microhybrid, nanohybrid, and packable composite restorations. materials and methods: in this in vitro s...

The mechanism responsible for sodium-hypochlorite-induced reduction in dentin bond strength and its reversal with reducing agents is unknown. This study examined the relationship between nanoleakage and reversal of compromised bonding to oxidized dentin. Acid-etched dentin was completely depleted of demineralized collagen matrix when sodium hypochlorite was used. Specimens were bonded with two ...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Delayed dentin sealing is traditionally performed with indirect restorations. With this technique, dentin is sealed after the provisional phase at the cementation appointment. It was demonstrated that this chronology does not provide optimal conditions for bonding procedures. Immediate dentin sealing (IDS) is a new approach in which dentin is sealed immediately following to...

The formation of a hybrid layer is the main bonding mechanism of current dentin-bonding systems. This study evaluated the morphology and thickness of the resin-infiltrated dentinal layer after the application of adhesive systems. The dentin-bonding agents were evaluated on flat dentinal preparations confected on the occlusal surfaces of human teeth. The test specimens were prepared and inspecte...

This study was performed to standardize a dentin barrier test with the substitute and evaluate the cytotoxicity of one-step self-etching bonding agents. Each of the natural bovine dentin and polyurethane discs were 500-μm thick and were tested using a perfusion device. Following the treatment with 0.05% phenol on the natural bovine disc or three kinds of polyurethane discs-30, 40, and 50 pcf (p...
