dhesive systems associated to resin-modified glass ionomer cements are employed for the achievement of a higher bond strength to dentin. Despite this benefit, other properties should not be damaged. This study aimed at evaluating the short-time fluoride release of a resin-modified glass ionomer cement coated with two one-bottle adhesive systems in a pH cycling system. Four combinations were inv...

OBJECTIVES Microleakage of composite restorations at the cervical margin placed apically to the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) is still a concern. This study evaluated the effect of simultaneous bonding application on cervical sealing of nano-ionomer/silorane- or methacrylate-based composite open sandwich Class II restorations in the modified technique compared with that of conventional bonding. ...

Background and Aim: The aim of the present study was to investigate adhesion ability of resin-modified glass ionomer adhesive (Vitrebond) to ethanol-saturated dentin following two different surface conditioning regimes in term of microtensile bond

Over the last decade, the classic concept of 3-step bonding to dental tissues has developed rapidly to more user-friendly, simplified adhesive systems. These comprise the total-etch 2 step, self-etch 2step and the self-etch "all-in-one" adhesives. These adhesives carry along with simplicity some characteristics that are relevant to their efficacy in providing long-lasting bond stability. They s...

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Enamel and dentin marginal sealing ability of the new adhesive materials could play an important role in successful restoration on fluorosed teeth. PURPOSE The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the marginal microleakage of low-shrinkage silorane-based composite, nano-ionomer, and methacrylate-based composite through self-etching approach or with enamel acid e...

ARTICLE INFO Abstract Article History: Received 2 August 2015 Accepted 2 November 2015 Statement of Problem: There is no enough published data about the shear bond strength of resin modified glass ionomer adhesives on caries-affected primary tooth dentin excavated using minimally invasive systems. Objectives: To evaluate the shear bond strength of 2 different adhesives (one resin modified glass...

Aim: Mechanical characteristics of tooth preparation along with luting agents are significant entities on the maintenance of fixed dental prostheses. This study aimed at assessing the retention of complete metal crowns luted with two different luting agents using two different preparation height. Methods: Forty human maxillary premolars were selected and prepared to receive complete metal crown...

AIM The present study was conducted to determine and compare the shear bond strengths of Conventional glass ionomer; Resin-modified glass ionomer; Polyacid-modified composite and Composite Resin, and to assess and determine the mode of failure (adhesive, cohesive, mixed). MATERIALS AND METHODS Occlusal dentin of 40 extracted human teeth were randomly divided into four groups of ten teeth, eac...
