Film thickness, strength, solubility and microleakage of dental cements are essential factors in cement selection by dentist. Since failure of metal ceramic restorations is mostly due to their marginal leakage and provious studies have shown that microleakage of Resin, Glassionomer and Zincphosphate cements are different, this study was done to compare the rate of microleakage between Ariadent ...

Background: Bleaching teeth is popular because the discoloration is a major people’s concern. This study aimed to compare the effect of three antioxidants on the microleakage of composite resin filling after bleaching teeth with 35% H2O2, thus minimizing the potential clinical toxicity of filling materials entering patients’ body. Methods: Sixty-six extracted intact teeth were included in this...

AIM To evaluate the effect of dental bleaching with carbamide peroxide at different exposure times on the microleakage of resin composite and resin-modified glass ionomer restorations after placement in extracted human teeth. METHODS AND MATERIALS 120 Class V cavity preparations were placed at the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) of human teeth. Half of the cavities were restored with Filtek P60 ...

Improving the adaptation of resin composites during placement is necessary to increase durability and reduce microleakage. Flowable resin liners have been introduced to improve adaptation in composite restorations. In addition, a device that lowers the viscosity of regular dental composites has been introduced (Calset, AdDent Inc, Danbury, CT, USA). This device lowers the viscosity of composite...

BACKGROUND Fixed prosthodontics is a routine dental treatment and microleakage is a major cause of its failure. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the marginal microleakage of four cements in metal ceramic restorations with adapted and open margins. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty sound human premolars were selected for this experimental study performed in Tehran, Iran and prepared ...

The development of aesthetic and adhesive dentistry and the availability of reliable new dental materials have changed the daily practice of dentistry because these advances have led to more conservative cavity design and preservation of maximum sound dental tissues. The objective of this study is to compare the bond strength and microleakage of Compomer with Composite and Glass ionomer (conven...

This study was carried out to evaluate in situ the influence of microleakage, surface roughness and biofilm control on caries formation around composite resin restorations. During 28 days, 12 volunteers wore palatal devices containing bovine enamel slabs restored with composite resin. Restorations were made without leakage, when the adhesive system was applied, or with leakage, when adhesive sy...

Our experiment evaluated the microleakage in resin composite restorations bonded to dental tissues with different adhesive systems. 40 class V cavities were prepared on the facial and lingual surfaces of each tooth with coronal margins in enamel and apical margins in cementum (root dentin). The teeth were restored with Z100 resin composite bonded with different adhesive systems: Scotchbond Mult...
