objective: this study evaluated the influence of storage time on micro-shear bond strength of two self-etching materials to enamel and dentin. materials and methods: human third molar teeth were sectioned to 1.5 mm thick beams and randomly divided into 2 groups. in group i, se bond and in group ii, tri-s bond was used to bond a composite rod (ap-x) to each treated surface. specimens were prepar...

Background and Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the micro-shear bond strength of an indirect composite resin to three different types of cores. Materials and Methods: In this in-vitro study, 14 blocks (5×5×2 mm) were designed and milled by computer from cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) alloy, zirconia, and polyether ether ketone (PEEK). Each sample was treated according to the manufacturer’s ...

  Abstract Introduction: One-bottle light-cured adhesives systems have variable pH. In addition to ease of use, universal adhesives can be used in various restorations and different substrates. Due to the lack of studies, the purpose of this study was to compare the enamel and dentin micro-leakage of self-cure and light cure composite restorations using a universal bonding system. Materials...

background and aims. effect of surface treatments on repair bond strength of aged composite resins might be different due to their dissimilar fillers. the aim was to evaluate the effect of different surface treatments on repair micro-shear bond strength (µsbs) of silica- (spectrum tph) and zirconia-filled (filtek z250) composite resins. materials and methods. twenty-seven composite resin blocks...

Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the microtensile bond strengths (µ TBS) of three core materials with one lithium disilicate reinforced ceramic using two resin cements. Methods: Three core materials (Nulite F® (Biodental Technologies), Filtek Z250® (3M-ESPE), Prettau-Anterior® (Zirkonzhan, Germany)) were prepared as blocks (10×10×4 mm3) according...
