OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the cytotoxicity of 3 self-etching bonding systems: Optibond Solo Plus SE primer, Xeno III, and i Bond. STUDY DESIGN The test materials were applied on the dentine discs of dentine barrier models in the same way as in the clinical procedures recommended by each manufacturer. 3-D cell culture of Bovine pulp-derived cells transfected with Simian virus 40 Large T a...

Covalently linking DNA base analogues DAN, DeUG, or UPy to glass slides led to functional surfaces that could be glued together using a functionalized polystyrene displaying the complementary recognition unit. Nonspecific adhesion was minimized with fluorinated alkane (Teflon-like or Scotchgard-like) surfaces.

The purpose of this study was to determine the in vitro bond strengths of composite rebonded to stainless steel crown metal (SS) using five different bonding agents after composite to SS bond failure had been produced. The adhesive systems were applied to the failed bonds following the manufacturers' instructions and, as a control, composite was bonded to SS without using a bonding agent. Each ...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to compare the water sorption/solubility, percent conversion and microtensile bond strength of three single-step self-etching adhesives with those of a two-step self-etching primer adhesive system. METHODS Solvent evaporation from the adhesives was determined gravimetrically. After removal of volatile solvents, the resins were cast into disks and polym...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of sandblasting and different chemical bonding agents on shear bond strength of zirconia and conventional resin cement. In this study, 35 zirconia specimens were treated as follows: Group I: control; Group II: sandblasting; Group III: sandblasting + Monobond S; Group IV: sandblasting + Monobond Plus; Group V: sandblasting + Z-Prime Plus. The spe...

The influence of chemical cleaning agents on the bond strength between resin cement and glass-fiber posts was investigated. The treatments included 10% hydrofluoric acid, 35% phosphoric acid, 50% hydrogen peroxide, acetone, dichloromethane, ethanol, isopropanol, and tetrahydrofuran. Flat glass-fiber epoxy substrates were exposed to the cleaners for 60 s. Resin cement cylinders were formed on th...
