PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of different surface treatment methods on the microtensile bond strength of resin cement to resin nanoceramic (RNC). MATERIALS AND METHODS RNC onlays (Lava Ultimate) (n=30) were treated using air abrasion with and without a universal adhesive, or HF etching followed by a universal adhesive with and without a silane coupling agent, or...

background and aims. effect of surface treatments on repair bond strength of aged composite resins might be different due to their dissimilar fillers. the aim was to evaluate the effect of different surface treatments on repair micro-shear bond strength (µsbs) of silica- (spectrum tph) and zirconia-filled (filtek z250) composite resins. materials and methods. twenty-seven composite resin blocks...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of adhesive primer applications on the bond strength of resin cements to cast titanium. Four adhesive primers - Metaltite, Metal Primer II, Alloy Primer and Ceramic Primer - and their respective resin cements - Bistite II DC, Link Max, Panavia F 2.0, RelyX Unicem and RelyX ARC - were tested. Cast plates were prepared from titanium ingots (n=...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to compare the in vitro microleakage of fourth-generation filled and unfilled adhesive resin systems with fifth-generation filled and unfilled adhesive resin systems in both primary and permanent teeth. METHODS Eighty extracted or exfoliated human noncarious teeth (40 primary and 40 permanent) were assigned to each of 8 groups. Groups 1, 3, 5 and 7 were p...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The poor chemical bonding of a denture base resin to cast titanium framework often introduces adhesive failure and increases microleakage. PURPOSE This study evaluated the shear bond strengths of a heat cure denture base resin to commercially pure titanium, Ti-6Al-4V alloy and a cobalt-chromium alloy using two adhesive primers. MATERIAL AND METHODS Disks of commercially...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to assess the intra-pulpal temperature changes in adhesive resin cements during polymerization. MATERIALS AND METHODS Dentin surface was prepared with extracted human mandibular third molars. Adhesive resin cements (Panavia F 2.0, Panavia SA, and RelyX U200) were applied to the dentin surface and polymerized under IPS e.max Press restoration. K-type thermocou...

background: the aim of this study was to determine the microtensile bond strength (μtbs) of ceramic and composite computer aided design‑computer aided manufacturing (cad‑cam) blocks bonded to dentin using different adhesive strategies. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 30 crowns of sound freshly extracted human molars were sectioned horizontally 3 mm above the cementoenamel junctio...

Early history of dentin bonding Attempts to develop an adhesive system which bonds acrylic resins to the tooth structure started in the early 1950s. In 1949, an adhesive system capable of bonding acrylic resin to the tooth structure was invented by Hagger; it was composed of glycerophosphoric acid dimethacrylate (GPDM) and sulfinic acid as the catalyst. In his patent, shear bond strengths of ac...

cementation of alloy-based restorations with traditional cements (e.g., glass-ionomer, resin-modified glass-ionomer, zinc phosphate, zinc polycarboxylate) to bonding of all ceramic restorations with resin based cements. With the increasing demand for high-end esthetic treatments for anterior teeth restorations, the need for a good esthetic cementation system comes into play in modern day dentis...
