introdouction: esthetic demands of patients have led to the introduction of tooth-colored restorations wherecomposite resins are bonded to the enamel using acid etch techniques. total etch adhesion systems are still considered as the gold standard among bonding systems. however, clinicians have a tendency to use adhesive systems with simpler application procedures. the aim of the present study ...

conclusion both adhesive systems showed good biological compatibility. background to investigate pulp response to the application of two types adhesive systems (total-etch and self-etch) in human premolar teeth. materials and methods cavities limited to enamel walls in all margins with 2.5 mm depth were prepared on buccal surfaces of thirty three human premolars. the cavities were treated with ...

Objective: To compare the retention and marginal discoloration of Self-etch Total Etch Adhesive during Pit Fissure Sealant application at 1 month, 3 months, 6 12 months. Materials methods: 30 school-going children received sealants in all four permanent second molars, carried out Department Pedodontics Preventive Dentistry. The fully erupted molars were randomly allocated into groups: group A (...

background and aims: we aimed to assess the bond strength of composite resin to three pulp capping biomaterials; proroot mineral trioxide aggregate (pmta), root mta (rmta) and calcium enriched mixture (cem), using three bonding systems [a total etch (single bond) and two self-etch systems (protect bond and se bond)]. materials and methods: ninety acrylic moulds containing a 6×2 mm hole were div...

INTRODUCTION The adhesive systems and the techniques currently used are designed to provide a more effective adhesion with reduction of the protocol application. The objective of this study was to evaluate the bond strength of universal adhesive systems on enamel in different etching modes (self-etch and total etch). MATERIALS AND METHODS The mesial and distal halves of 52 bovine incisors, he...

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM In the sandwich technique, the undesirable bond between the composite resin and glass-ionomer cement (GIc) is one of the most important factors which lead to the failure of restoration. Total-etch and self-etch adhesives may improve the bond strength based on their pH. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strength between the nanofilled com...

OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the influence of chlorhexidine (CHX) on the microtensile bonds strength (µTBS) of resin core with two adhesive systems to dentin in endodontic cavities. MATERIALS AND METHODS Flat dentinal surfaces in 40 molar endodontic cavities were treated with self-etch adhesive system, Contax (DMG) and total-etch adhesive system, Adper Single Bond 2 (3M ESPE) after the fol...
