objective: ceramics have advantages such as optimal esthetics and biocompatibility. however, in the oral environment, they are subjected to high levels of stress due to masticatory forces, saliva, thermal changes and alterations of ph, which increase their risk of fracture. since replacement of these restorations is costly and time-consuming, composite resin is often used for intraoral repair o...

introduction: the aim of this study was to compare the shear bond strength of a self-adhering flowable composite (safc) and resin-modified glass ionomer (rmgi) to mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) and calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement. methods and materials: a total of 72 acrylic blocks with a central hole (4 mm in diameter and 2 mm in depth) were prepared. the holes were filled with mta (su...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of various concentrations of naocl on shear bond strength of composite resin to dentin of primary teeth, prepared with laser and bur. methods: in this in vitro study, 48 primary molars were sectioned at mesiodistal direction and were randomly divided into 6 groups; g1: bur, g2: bur + naocl 2.5%, g3: bur + naocl 5.25%, g4: laser, g5:...

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 ...

background and aims. studies have shown decreased bond strength of composite resin to human and bovine bleached enamel. this study evaluated the effect of sodium ascorbate and delayed bonding on the bond strength of two adhesive systems to bleached enamel. materials and methods. the labial surfaces of 150 sound bovine incisor teeth were abraded with abrasive paper. the teeth were randomly divid...

Effects of annealing treatment after equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) on the interface properties and shear bond strength of Al/Cu bimetallic rods were investigated. For the as-deformed samples, the one with two passes of ECAP indicated higher shear bond strength. Formation of a layer of intermetallic compounds after annealing treatment is confirmed. In general, by increasing annealing tem...
