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...

abstract statement of problem: there is no enough published data about the shear bond strength of resin modified glass ionomer adhesives on caries-affected primary tooth dentin excavated using minimally invasive systems. objectives: to evaluate the shear bond strength of 2 different adhesives (one resin modified glass ionomer and one resin) using two caries removal techniques on healthy and car...

OBJECTIVES Microleakage of composite restorations at the cervical margin placed apically to the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) is still a concern. This study evaluated the effect of simultaneous bonding application on cervical sealing of nano-ionomer/silorane- or methacrylate-based composite open sandwich Class II restorations in the modified technique compared with that of conventional bonding. ...

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of topical application of fluoride gel on artificial secondary caries around adhesive restorations. Materials and Methods: Two box-shaped cavities were prepared on both buccal and lingual dentin surfaces of bovine roots. Each cavity was restored with either a non fluoride-releasing adhesive, Clearfil SE Bond/a resin composite, Clearfil AP-X (AP-X), or an experime...

This study evaluated the influence of material combinations used in the resin coating technique (RCT) on the marginal adaptation of indirect restorations with gingival margins in enamel (EM) and cement (CM). Eighty third-molars were used. Two cavities were prepared in each tooth. The cavities were distributed into 16 groups. Cavities with EM were filled with the following material combinations:...

Introduction: Bleaching of discolored tooth may affect the tooth/composite interface. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of carbamide peroxide (CP) on the marginal seal of composite restorations bonded with a self-etch adhesive. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study  Class V cavities were prepared on the buccal and lingual surfaces o...
