statement of problem: the bond strength of root canal sealers to gutta-percha seems to be an important property for maintaining the integrity of the apical seal which can result in reducing apical microleakage. purpose: the purpose of the present study was to compare the tensile bond strengths of four types of root canal sealers to gutta–percha. this study measured the maximum forces needed to ...

Tetryzoline(TH) is an adrenergic agent (vasoconstrictors) and derived from imidazoline. This compound is closely related to naphazoline hydrochloride in its pharmacological action. Nanotechnology has been used to provide advanced biomedical research tools in drug delivery. The fullerene family especially C60 derivatives have appealing photo-, electro-chemical and physical properties for biomedi...

ion molecules with general chemical formula as [li(h2o)] (n=1,2,3), have been chosen as model species toinvestigate the chemical properties of hydrated lithium cations. the rhf(scvs)/ugbs level of calculationhas been used for obtaining equilibrium geometries and rho(r) functions (electron density distributions). by theaid of fundamental physical theorems implemented in quantum theory of atoms i...

We sought to evaluate immediate and delayed micro-tensile bond strength of Panavia F2.0 and Multilink Sprint resin cement to superficial, deep and cervical dentin. Thirty-six freshly extracted non-carious human molars were sectioned in the mesiodistal direction to expose three different dentin regions including superficial dentin (1 mm below the dentine-enamel junction), deep dentin (1 mm above...

failure of soft liners depends mostly on separation from the denture base resin; therefore measurement of the bond strength is very important. the purpose of this study was to compare the tensile bond strength of two soft liners (acropars, molloplast-b) to denture base resin before and after thermocycling.twenty specimens fromeach of the two different soft liners were processed according to the...
