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...

statement of the problem: monomer viscosity and solvent evaporation can be affected by the adhesive system temperature. higher temperature can elevate the vapor pressure in solution and penetration of adhesive in smear layer. bonding mechanism may be influenced by the adhesive temperature. purpose: this study aimed to evaluate the effect of pre-heating on shear bond strength of etch-and-rinse a...

Introduction: The biggest challenge that orthodontist face in the clinical practice is debonding of the brackets. The best way to avoid bond failure is to adhere strictly to the rules of good bonding. Aims and Objectives: Aims and objectives of the study were to measure shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets which were rebonded using different tooth surface reconditioning methods that are ...

bonding brackets to the enamel surface has gained much popularity today. new adhesive systems have been introduced and marketed and a considerable increase in research regarding bond strength has been published. a considerable amount of these studies deal with shear bond strength of adhesives designed for orthodontic purpose. previous studies have used variety of test designs. this diversity in...

Soil stabilization is the alteration of property of locally available soil to improve its engineering performance. Stabilization can increase the shear strength of soil and control shrink – swell properties of soil, thus improving the load bearing capacity of a sub grade to support the pavements and foundation. The objective of this paper is to expose the possibilities of paper sludge and rice ...

SHAKE2000 and DEEPSOIL are the two most important programs to calculate the response analysis of soil layer. In order to analyze the similarities and differences between them, and to guide the improvement of the method and program of seismic response analysis of soil layer, 25 KiK net seismic records from 9 stations were selected as the research objects in this paper, from the aspects of surfac...

Objectives: Ceramics have advantages such as optimal esthetics and biocompatibility. However, in the oral environment, they are subjected to high levels of stress due to masticatory forces, saliva, thermal changes and alterations of pH, which increase their risk of fracture. Since replacement of these restorations is costly and time-consuming, composite resin is often used for intraoral repair ...
