The purpose of this study was to investigate the tensile bond strengths of three adhesive systems applied to dentin at refrigerated and room temperatures. Ninety bovine incisor teeth were obtained, embedded in self-cured acrylic resin, abraded on a lathe under water spray and polished to 400 and 600 grit to form standardized dentin surfaces before randomly assigning to six groups (n = 15). The ...

OBJECTIVE 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. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty specimens fromeach of the two different soft lin...

OBJECTIVE The goal of this paper is to undertake a literature search collecting all dentin bond strength data obtained for six adhesives with four tests (shear, microshear, tensile and microtensile) and to critically analyze the results with respect to average bond strength, coefficient of variation, mode of failure and product ranking. METHOD A PubMed search was carried out for the years bet...

Background. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of Corega and 2.5% sodium hypochlorite cleansing agents on the shear and tensile bond strengths of GC soft liner to denture base. Methods. A total of 144 samples (72 samples for tensile and 72 for shear bond strength evaluations) were prepared. The samples in each group were subdivided into three subgroups in terms of the clean...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the micro-tensile bonding strength (muTBS) of three luting resins to human regional dentin. METHODS Dentin disks from non-carious third molars were prepared from different regions (s, superficial dentin; d, deep dentin; c, cervical dentin), and divided into groups based on anatomical locations and luting resins (Super-Bond C&B: SB; Panavia F 2.0: PF; RelyX Unicem: RU): ...

Abstract Background and Aim: One of the major problems with resin composite restorations is the weakness of bonding between the new and aged composites. Since appropriate micromechanical retention is necessary for the repair of aged resin composite restorations, the level of surface roughness after sandblasting can be influential in this regard. Considering the diverse composition of avail...

This study investigated the effect of Er:YAG laser on bonding to dentin and the interaction pattern of different adhesive systems with the lased substrate. Tensile bond strength of a self-etching [Clearfil SE Bond (CSEB)] and two total-etch [Single Bond (SB) and Gluma One Bond (GOB)] systems to lased and non-lased dentin was evaluated and the adhesive interface morphology was examined by SEM. D...

OBJECTIVE Phase-separation within HEMA-free all-in-one dental adhesives may result in the entrapment of droplets within the adhesive resin. Strongly air-blowing prior to polymerization, can remove most of these droplets. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect these droplets may have on the resistance of the adhesive-tooth interface to NaOCl degradation. METHODS The micro-tensi...

OBJECTIVE The aim was to evaluate, in vitro, the tensile bond strength to dentin of Scotchbond Universal (SU), All-Bond Universal (AU) and One Coat 7 Universal (OC7) adhesives applied in self-etch mode, after 24 h of storage and after 500,000 loading cycles, using Clearfil SE Bond (SE) as a control. MATERIALS AND METHODS The adhesives were applied on the dentin of bovine teeth, followed by th...
