It has been reported that the adhesive resin layer of all-in-one adhesives is permeable and allows the formation of a water channel or water tree. The effects of a smear layer on the ultra-structure of bonding interface created with three all-in-one adhesives and a resin composite were evaluated in this study. Dentin surface was ground with of 180-, 600-, or 2000-grit SiC paper to produce diffe...

multiple adhesive coating is a controversial topic, especially in primary dentition that should be clarified. we evaluated the effect of multiple consecutive adhesive resin coatings on the microshear bond strength (μsbs) of composite resin to primary tooth dentin utilizing a filled (adper single bond plus) and an unfilled (adper single bond) adhesive resin.thirty extracted primary canines were ...

ozone is a triatomic molecule consisting of three oxygen atoms. it is applied to oral tissues in the forms of ozonated water, ozonated olive oil and oxygen/ozone gas. this paper presents a brief review on the chemistry of ozone as well as its medical and dental applications focusing on its use in endodontics. ozone’s antimicrobial activity, its effect on dentin bonding, toxicity and contra-indi...

Aim Conservative procedures using dentin bonding agents are one of the important aspects of paediatric dental practice. The objective of this in vitro study was to comparatively evaluate the microleakage of two self etching adhesives in primary and permanent teeth. Materials and methods Sixtyfour human anterior teeth (thirty-two primary and thirty-two permanent) were divided into four groups: p...

self etching primers, due to ease of manipulation, have been extensively used in recent years. these self etching primers containing a relatively weak acid, may not provide an optimal bond strength. the purpose of the present in-vitro investigation was to evaluate the effects of 37% phosphoric acid application prior to applying self etching primers on composite bond strength. in this experiment...

The purpose was to evaluate the effect of air-drying dentin surfaces on the microtensile bond strength (μTBS) of a solvent-free onestep adhesive (Bond 1 SF). Twelve human molars were ground with 600-grit SiC paper. Before applying bonding agent, the dentin surface was rinsed with distilled water and blot-dried with tissue paper, followed by air-drying for 0, 3, 30, and 60 s using with a dental ...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the bonding ability of five current self-etching adhesives to caries-affected dentin on the gingival wall. Seventy extracted human molars with approximal dentin caries were employed in this study. In order to obtain caries-affected dentin on the gingival wall, grinding was performed under running water. Following which, specimens mounted in acrylic bloc...

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-bot...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate acid etchant penetration on dentin bonding agents and its effect on the composite resin bond strength. Forty primary molars were mounted, then the buccal and lingual surfaces were prepared into dentin. The teeth were divided into four groups of 10, and four dentin bonding agents were placed on the buccal and lingual surfaces of exposed dentin, as recomm...

This study evaluated the effect of air-blowing variables on the microtensile bond strength (microTBS) of two all-in-one adhesives. A bonding agent was applied to the flat dentin surface of extracted bovine teeth, and the surface left undisturbed for 20 seconds. Gentle or intensive air-blowing was applied for five seconds, and the adhesive photopolymerized for 10 seconds. Resin composite paste w...
