objectives: this study aimed to compare the durability of four adhesive systems by assessing their microtensile bond strength (mtbs) and microleakage during six months of water storage. materials and methods: a total of 128 human third molars were used. the adhesives tested were scotch bond multipurpose (sbmp), single bond (sb), clearfil-se bond (cseb), and all-bond se (abse). after sample prep...

Background and Aim: Considering the increasing use of antibiotics in root canal therapy and the possible effects of intracanal medicaments on the bond strength of composite restorations, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of triple antibiotic paste (TAP) on shear bond strength of three types of composite resins to dentin. Materials and Methods: In this in-vitro, experimental st...

to assess the effects of different final irrigants on the bond strength of bonded root filling materials, epiphany/resilon and epiphany self-etch (se)/resilon.the root canals of eighty single-rooted extracted human teeth were prepared. after the smear layer was removed using 17% edta, the samples were randomly divided into eight groups. in groups 1 and 2, no additional irrigant was used after e...

PURPOSE Polyamide polymers do not provide sufficient bond strength to auto-polymerized resins for repairing fractured denture or replacing dislodged denture teeth. Limited treatment methods have been developed to improve the bond strength between auto-polymerized reline resins and polyamide denture base materials. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of surface modifica...

INTRODUCTION Various bulk-fill materials depending on their composition, viscosity, and flow ability have different physical and mechanical properties. The aim of this in vitro study was to determine and compare the shear bond strength and microleakage properties of activa restorative with other bulk-fill restorative materials surefil (SDR), Biodentine, ever X posterior. MATERIALS AND METHODS...

PURPOSE Pre-surface treatments of coping materials have been recommended to enhance the bonding to the veneering ceramic. Little is known on the effect on shear bond strength, particularly with new coping material. The aim of this study was to investigate the shear bond strength of veneering ceramic to three coping materials: i) metal alloy (MA), ii) zirconia oxide (ZO), and iii) lithium disili...

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...

introduction: the aim of this study was to compare the micro-shear bond strength of composite resin on superficial and deep dentin after conditioning with phosphoric acid and erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (er:yag) laser. methods: thirty human molars were selected, roots were removed and crowns were bisected to provide a total of 60 half-crowns. specimens were ground to expose superficial...

objective : application of sodium ascorbate as an antioxidant and calcium hydroxide as a buffering agent following intracoronal bleaching has been recommended. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of using the mentioned materials on shear bond strength of composite resin to the bleached dentin. materials and methods: in this in vitro investigation, sixty human sound premolars wer...

objectives : this experimental study evaluated the effect of bonding application time on the microshear bond strength of composite resin to different types of glass ionomer cements (gics). materials and methods: one-hundred and sixty specimens (two conventional and two resin-modified gics) were prepared and divided into 16 groups. the surface of all specimens was prepared using two different bo...
