This study aimed to evaluate the effect of adhesive application method on durability enamel bond and thickness layer. A new-generation two-step universal system, G2-Bond Universal, two conventional systems were utilized. The shear strength bovine was measured after thermal cycling in both etch-and-rinse self-etch modes. Fifteen specimens divided into three groups as follows: Group I, wherein a ...

The present clinical study aimed to assess the postoperative sensitivity (POS) after 48 hours and seven days in occlusal restorations bonded with three different adhesive systems, two of them containing glutaraldehyde. The restorative procedures were performed using the three-step etch-and-rinse Adper SBMP-Plus adhesive (SBMP), the two-step etch-and-rinse Gluma Comfort One Bond + Desensitizer a...

background and aims. this in vitro study evaluated the effect of delaying composite resin restorative procedures bonded with total-etch and self-etch adhesive systems on microleakage following root canal irrigation with sodium hypochlorite (naocl) solution. materials and methods. the roofs of pulp chambers and roots (1–2 mm below furcation) of 40 human first molar teeth were cut and pulp tissue...

background: the clinical success of sandwich technique depends on the strength of resin-modified glass ionomer cement (rmgic) bonding to both dentin and resin composite. therefore, the shear bond strength (sbs) of resin composite bonded to rmgic utilizing different resin adhesives versus a gic-based adhesive was compared. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 84 holes (5×2 mm) were pre...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the ability of the resin-coat technique used in cavity preparation to protect dentin before impression taking and final cementation and its effect on the tensile bond strength of indirect restorations after thermal and load cycling. METHODS Occlusal enamel was removed from 25 third molars to expose flat dentin. Teeth were divided into 5 groups (n=5): G1, receiving no den...

The use of self-adhesive resin cements is accomplished by a simple clinical step, in which the simultaneous demineralization/infiltration of the bonding substrate takes place. However, the self-adhesive resin cements have lower bond strength than conventional resin cements that rely on the application of etch-and-rinse adhesive systems. In order to increase the bond strength of the self-adhesiv...

BACKGROUND No specific indications about the pre-treatment of indirect composite restorations is provided by the manufacturers of most self-adhesive resin cements. The potential effect of silane treatment to the bond strength of the complete tooth/indirect restoration complex is not available.The aim of this study was to determine the contribution of different surface treatments on microtensile...

BACKGROUND Longevity of post-retained restoration is highly depended on bonding stability of fiber post (FP) to root dentin. This study evaluated the effect of different antibacterial/adhesive approaches on bonding durability of FPs luted into root canal with a self-etch cement. MATERIAL AND METHODS Seventy-two human maxillary central incisor roots were divided into six groups after endodonti...

This study evaluated the effects of blood contamination and decontamination methods during different steps of bonding procedures on the microtensile bond strength of two-step self-etch adhesives to dentin. Sixty extracted human molars were ground flat to expose occlusal dentin. The 60 molars were randomly assigned to three groups, each treated with a different two-step self-etch adhesive: Clear...

With the arrival of self-etch adhesives systems, there has been a rise in interest among clinicians, making it imperative for health professionals to have knowledge of the properties, characteristics, the association as well as the dental structures of these materials, in order to select them and use them correctly. The self-etch adhesive systems show good values of bond strength, microleakage ...
