The effect of the cavosurface angle of dentin cavities prepared in extracted human molars on the cavity adaptation of a resin composite was evaluated by measuring the gap width between the resin composite and the dentin cavity wall. Cavities with cavosurface angles of 90 degrees, 120 degrees, 135 degrees, or 150 degrees were pretreated with one of two commercial dentin bonding systems or an exp...

Most modern adhesive systems are superior to their predecessors, especially in terms of retention that is no longer the main cause of premature clinical failure. Recent adhesives also appear less sensitive to substrate and other clinical covariables. Various recent trials have been conducted on various issues like the antibacterial properties of self-ethching dental adhesive system (which are e...

AIM This study evaluated the effect of three different contamination removal methods on bond strength of one-step self-etching adhesive to dentin contaminated with an aluminum chloride hemostatic agent. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred noncarious adult molars were used in this study; 2-mm-thick dentin disks were prepared and randomly assigned to 5 groups (n = 20). Group I: control; group II:...

objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the microtensile bond strength to sound and caries-affected dentin using single bond and adper prompt-l-pop adhesives. materials and methods: sixteen extracted human molars with carious lesions extended halfway through dentin were ground to expose the caries affected and the surrounding normal dentin. the samples were divided into two groups of e...

In vitro bond strengths of three resin adhesive systems were tested using 111 primary teeth. Ninety-six flat dentin surface specimens were divided into six groups consisting of 16 primed or 16 unprimed samples for each adhesive system. The remaining 15 tooth samples were divided into three groups of five to determine each adhesive system's bond strength to primary etched enamel. Resin buttons w...

Different adhesive systems · used in cervical erosions without cavity preparation were evaluated. The material comprised three groups of patients who received a total of 146 restorations placed by the same operator (JK). Each patient within a group received the same number of restorations with two different types of materials. Type 1: a capsulated glass-ionomer cement (FujiCap 2). Type 2: no ac...

Previous studies have suggested minor differences between primary and permanent teeth in terms of dentin composition and morphology. Other reports indicated lower bond strengths of resin composites to dentin of primary teeth compared with dentin of permanent teeth; however, no information is available regarding differences in the micromorphology of the resin-dentin interface that may explain th...

This study examined the effects of different application times of sodium ascorbate (SA) on the bond strength of composite resin to bleached dentin. Specimens with an exposed dentin surface were divided into 3 groups according to the type of bleaching agent used: Group A, mixture of sodium perborate (SP) and distilled water (DW); Group B, mixture of SP and hydrogen peroxide (HP); control group, ...

objectives: this in-vitro study aimed to compare the push-out bond strength of composite to prepared and unprepared intracanal dentin using a 5th generation bonding agent in primary anterior teeth after etching for seven and 15 seconds. materials and methods: sixty primary anterior teeth were randomly divided into four groups. in groups one and two, intracanal dentin remained intact while in gr...
