Background and Aim: Preparation of tooth structure by laser systems produces a surface with different characteristics. Therefore, selecting an appropriate bonding system is necessary to achieve the maximum bond strength. The aim of this study was to compare the bond strength of Adper Single Bond 2 adhesive and Single Bond Univer-sal to dentin prepared by bur or laser. Materials and Methods: ...

background: the aim of this study was to compare the shear bond strength of four one-step self-etch adhesives with different ph values to enamel and dentin. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 200 bovine permanent mandibular incisors were used. four one-step self-etch adhesives with different ph values were tested both on enamel and on dentin: adper™ easy bond self-etch adhesive (ph ...

OBJECTIVE The oral environment is subject to biofilm accumulation and cariogenic challenge, and few studies exist on the effect of these factors on the bond strength of adhesive systems. The aim of this study was to test if the exposure of adhesive interfaces to cariogenic challenge under biofilm accumulation could promote higher degradation than the exposure to biofilm accumulation alone. MA...

OBJECTIVE The bond strength of adhesives in irrigated dentin behaves differently over time. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of long-term water storage and thermocycling on the microtensile bond strength of adhesive systems to dentin irrigated with endodontic solutions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Sixty human molars were used after removal of the occlusal portion and exposure of ...

background: considering the possibility of remaining bacteria in the cavity or invading via microgaps, the use of antibacterial agents in adhesive restoration may be beneficial. this study evaluated the effect of chlorhexidine on immediate and long-term shear bond strength of adhesives with and without antibacterial agent to dentin. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, the occlusal su...

the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of chlorhexidine (chx) application on immediate and two-month bond strength of a filled adhesive system. methods: forty eight non-carious human third molars without enamel of occlusal surface were randomly divided into two main groups according to chx application: control and chx. each main group was further subdivided into 2 subgroups depending ...

in this study, porcelain bond strength to three different alloys of gold-base, pd-ag and base-metal were compared and the effect of repeated porcelain sintering on bond strength was evaluated. the obtained results showed best bond strength of porcelain with gold-base alloy. pd-ag and base-metal alloys showed less strength respectively. during repeated sintering of porcelain, bond strength has n...
