Bonding Agents in Pit and Fissure Sealants: A Review
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dental adhesive systems used for bonding dental resins to enamel and dentin have evolved through several "generations," with changes in chemistry, mechanism, number of bottles, application technique, and clinical effectiveness. The trend in the latest generation of dental bonding systems is to reduce the number of components and clinical placement steps. The introduction of i bond, a single-bottle dental adhesive system, is the latest of the new generation materials, and combines etchant, adhesive, and desensitizer in one component. This paper describes different dentin bonding agents, its evolution, mechanism of action and different commercially available dentin bonding agents and their role in the retention of pit and fissure sealant.

متن کاملThe use of pit and fissure sealants in dentistry, present status and future developments.
becoming available, as well as results from long-term clinical trials, a great deal of evidence has accumulated to support the clinical efficacy of pit and fissure sealants. Since smooth surfaces benefit most, and occlusal surfaces the least from the use of fluorides, an alternative technique which prevents occlusal caries can make a major impact on overall caries reduction when used in conjunc...
متن کاملPit and fissure sealant: review of the literature
For this literature review of pit and fissure sealant, 1,465 references were selected by a search for “sealants” on PubMed. References were limited to dental journals and papers in the English language. The search comprised papers from 1971 to October 2001. Additional papers of historical significance prior to 1971 were added from memory and from reference lists published in early papers. This ...
متن کاملEffect of chlorhexidine solution on microleakage of pit and fissure sealants in permanent teeth with and without the use of fifth- and sixth-generation adhesive systems
Introduction: Due to concerns about histological caries and recurrent caries after the use of sealants, adhesive systems containing fluoride and antibacterial agents have been proposed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the microleakage of sealants after the use of antibacterial chlorhexidine solution on etched enamel with and without the use of fifth- and sixth-generation adhesive systems....
