The substances used in the root canal treatment, especially sodium hypochlorite solution and oxidant agents, can negatively interfere on the bond strength of the adhesive systems to dentin and on the dental crowns fracture resistance.(1,2).

This literature review article addresses the types and the main components of different etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesive systems available in the market, and relates them to their function, possible chemical interactions and influence of handling characteristics. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images are presented to characterize the interface between adhesives and dentin. Adhesive sys...

OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the water sorption, solubility and kinetics of water diffusion in commercial and experimental resins that are formulated to be used as dentin and enamel bonding agents. METHODS Four commercial adhesives were selected along with their solvent-monomer combination: the bonding resins were of Adper Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (MP) and Clearfil SE Bond (SE) systems, an...

The strength of adhesive joints has been found to result from combinations of micromechanical, chemical and diffusion components depending on the system 1. The development of adhesives that bond dental restorative materials to human dentine has been a major advance in the science of dental materials. The purpose of this investigation was to study the contribution of parallel surface cuts on the...

Rehabilitation of patients with anterior conoid teeth may present a challenge for the clinician, especially when trying to mimic the nature with composite resins. This clinical report exemplifies how a patient with conoid upper lateral incisors was rehabilitated with minimally invasive adhesive restorations. Following diagnostic wax-up and cosmetic mock-up, no-prep veneers and ceramic fragments...

Bond strengths of bonded composite resins to tooth substrates vary depending on when they were measured. Most bond strengths reported in the literature are a result of one hour, 24-hour, or longer periods of time that do not simulate actual clinical practice when occlusal adjustment and finishing and polishing procedures are performed within seconds after restoration placement. There are many d...

background: at the end of fi xed orthodontic treatment, the remnant of adhesive should be eliminated from the tooth surface. the purpose of this study was to compare the effect of three methods of removing adhesive on enamel surface roughness, dental pulp t emperature, and also on the time spent. materials and methods: the brackets on 90 extracted teeth were debonded using bracket removal plier...
