Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate long-term bond strengths of dentin adhesive systems, which include one-step self-etch adhesive systems (Optibond All-in-one, Kerr; Adper Prompt L-POP, 3 M ESPE), a three-step etch-and-rinse adhesive (Optibond FL, Kerr) and two-step self-etch adhesive (AdheSE Bond, Ivoclar), applied to pulp chamber dentin surfaces after 12-month water storage ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the bond strength of three adhesive systems: Excite™, Adper Prompt L-Pop™ and AdheSE One™ to varying degrees of fluorotic enamel using micro-tensile bond strength (μTBS) tests. Human enamel was classified according to the Thylstrup and Fejerskov Index. The interface resin-enamel was observed using stereoscopic and electron microscopy. The Excite™, achieved ...

PURPOSE To evaluate the in vitro microtensile bond strength (microTBS) of etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesive systems to demineralized dentin after the use of a papain-based chemomechanical method. METHODS 36 demineralized human dentin slabs were randomly distributed into two groups according to the method of caries removal: (1). Mechanical removal with manual excavators; (2) Chemomechanica...

The important condition for the adhesive bond between dentine and composite filling is the change of dentine property from hydrophilic to hydrophobic. Substances able to accomplish this change, dentinal adhesives, have undergone complex development. Recently, the so-called self-etching adhesives have been formulated. The aim of the present paper was to compare the structural pattern of dentin/r...

OBJECTIVE This study evaluated marginal integrity of bonded posterior resin composite fillings to enamel and dentine with and without 4mm flowable base, before and after thermo-mechanical loading (TML). METHODS 80 MOD cavities with one proximal box beneath the CEJ were prepared in extracted human third molars. Direct resin composite restorations (SDR with CeramX mono, Tetric EvoCeram, Filtek ...

background: as the use of different irrigants to eliminate residual debris and smear layer in the field of endodontic is unavoidable, by considering the effect of irrigants on the bond strength of resin composite restorations, this study was designed to evaluate the effect of a mixture of a tetracycline isomer, an acid, and a detergent (mtad) on the shear bond strength of two self-etch adhesive...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of tri-antibiotic paste (TAP) on microtensile bond strengths (MTBS) of dental adhesives to dentin. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty extracted molars had their occlusal surfaces flattened to expose dentin. They were divided into two groups, i.e., control group with no dentin treatment and experimental group with dentin treatment with TAP....

BACKGROUND Evaluate the influence of different hybridization bonding techniques of a self-adhesive resin cement. MATERIAL AND METHODS 30 human health molars were divided into six groups (n=10). The specimens received three longitudinal sections, allowing insertion of central cuts in PVC matrices. Each group received a different dentin pretreatment according to the manufacturer's recommendatio...

This study evaluated the bonding compatibility between dual-cured resin cements and simplified adhesive systems (one-step self-etch and two-step etch & rinse), measured after 24 hours and 3 months. The occlusal dentin surfaces of 24 human third molars were exposed and flattened. Teeth were randomly assigned to 3 groups and treated with different combinations of adhesive system and resin cement ...

INTRODUCTION Systems that bond composite material to enamel are constantly modernized (application is simplified and the number of system components is reduced). The latest products are one-coat systems combining etchant, primer, and bond. Use of such systems is easier for the dentist and adds to patient's comfort. The aim of this work was to evaluate microscopically the composite material--bon...
