introduction: retention of fiber reinforced composite posts depends on the bond strength between post and cement, and cement and root dentin. the aim of this study is to evaluate the bond strength of one type of fiber post to radicular dentin with different adhesive cements. materials and methods: crowns of 44 caries-free, human premolar were removed 2 mm below the cej and the roots were endodo...

Introduction: Bond strength is an important property and determines the amount of force delivered and treatment duration in orthodontics. Many light-cured bonding materials are being used; but it is required to determine the most efficient one with desired bond strength. Objective: To determine and compare the shear bond strength of three visible light-cured composites (Transbond XT, Heliosit a...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM The bond strength between restorative material and tooth structure is so important for conduction of durable restoration. Considering the recent attention to low shrinkage composite resins, evaluation of micro tensile bond strength of these materials would be valuable. OBJECTIVES To compare the microtensile bond strength of silorane composite resin (Filtek P90) with the c...

OBJECTIVE To assess the effects of different final irrigants on the bond strength of bonded root filling materials, Epiphany/Resilon and Epiphany self-etch (SE)/Resilon. MATERIALS AND METHODS The root canals of eighty single-rooted extracted human teeth were prepared. After the smear layer was removed using 17% EDTA, the samples were randomly divided into eight groups. In groups 1 and 2, no a...

AIM The present study was conducted to determine and compare the shear bond strengths of Conventional glass ionomer; Resin-modified glass ionomer; Polyacid-modified composite and Composite Resin, and to assess and determine the mode of failure (adhesive, cohesive, mixed). MATERIALS AND METHODS Occlusal dentin of 40 extracted human teeth were randomly divided into four groups of ten teeth, eac...

background: antioxidizing agents have recently been suggested to compensate decreased bond strength of resin materials to bleached tooth tissues. this study compared the shear bond strength (sbs) of three different adhesives on bleached dentin immediately after bleaching, bleached/delayed for 1 week, and bleached/applied antioxidizing agent. materials and methods: the dentinal surfaces of 132 i...

introduction: the aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of various irrigants on the push-out bond strength of calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement and mineral trioxide aggregate (mta). methods and materials: a total of 140 dentin disks with a thickness of 1.5±0.2 mm and lumen size of 1.3 mm, were randomly divided into 12 groups ( n =10) and 4 control groups ( n =5). the lumen o...
