Adhesion promoting monomers — 5(4-vinylbenzyl) -2-thiobarbituric acid (5VS) , 9,10-epithiodecyl methacrylate (EP8MA) , 9,10-epithiodecyl 4-vinylbenzoate (EP8VB) , and 3,4-epithiobutyl 2,2-bis (methacryloyloxymethyl) propionate (EP2BMA) — were added to the MMA liquid of a MMA-PMMA/TBBO resin. Three dental precious metal alloys were butt-jointed together with the MMA-PMMA/TBBO adhesive resin, and...

Yttria partially stabilized zirconia (YPSZ) ceramics are suitable for dental and medical use because of their high fracture toughness and chemical durability. The purpose of this study was to examine the bonding behavior of a dental YPSZ ceramic, Denzir. After being subjected to various surface treatments, Denzir specimens were bonded to each other using an adhesive resin composite, glass ionom...

the incorporation of boehmite nano-particles and its effects on the mechanical properties and bond strength of an experimental dental adhesive were studied.an adhesive solution containing ethanol, bis-gma, tmptma, hema and photo-initiator system (camphorquinone and dmaema) was prepared. silanized boehmite nano-particles were incorporated into the adhesive in different concentrations of 0, 0.2, ...

This paper reviews the developments of dithiooctanoate monomers and acidic adhesive monomers, and their roles in multi-purpose primers and adhesives in promoting adhesion to multiple substrate materials. Novel dithiooctanoate monomers exhibited excellent bonding to precious metals and alloys when compared against conventional sulfur-containing monomers. Newly developed phosphonic acid monomers,...

The population affected by dental erosion due to bulimia is generally very young. This population group has a high aesthetic requirement; the dentition in these patients is severely damaged, especially in the anterior maxillary quadrant. In terms of treatment, it is still controversial whether an adhesive rehabilitation is preferable to a longer-lasting but more aggressive conventional treatmen...

Adhesion promoting monomers -5-(4-vinylbenzyl)-2-thiobarbituric acid (5VS), 9,10-epithiodecyl methacrylate (EP8MA), 9,10-epithiodecyl 4-vinylbenzoate (EP8VB), and 3,4-epithiobutyl 2,2-bis(methacryloyloxymethyl)propionate (EP2BMA)--were added to the MMA liquid of a MMA-PMMA/TBBO resin. Three dental precious metal alloys were butt-jointed together with the MMA-PMMA/TBBO adhesive resin, and tensil...

UNLABELLED The dawn of minimally invasive dentistry has led to the development of materials which rely on the use of effective adhesion to bond to remaining tooth tissue. Successful adhesive bonding is dependent upon appreciating the quality of the dental substrate, appropriate clinical handling of the material and patient, together with an appreciation of the chemistry of the adhesive. This pa...

Most modern adhesive systems are superior to their predecessors, especially in terms of retention that is no longer the main cause of premature clinical failure. Recent adhesives also appear less sensitive to substrate and other clinical covariables. Various recent trials have been conducted on various issues like the antibacterial properties of self-ethching dental adhesive system (which are e...
