introduction: the purpose of this study was to compare the push-out bond strength of white proroot mineral trioxide aggregate (mta), biodentine, calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement and endosequence root repair material (errm) putty after exposure to blood. methods and materials: a total of 96 root dentin slices with a standardized thickness of 1.00±0.05 mm and standardized canal spaces were r...

The deterioration of bond strength between reinforcing steel and concrete as a result of impressed cathodic current with respect to the exposure time was investigated. A current in the magnitude of 3ma/ft2 (based on reinforcing rebar area) was used for a period of five years. Chemical analyses for sodium (Na+), potassium (K+) and chloride (Cl-) ions in concrete cylinders were performed as a fun...

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.sixty human molars were used after removal of the occlusal portion and exposure of the dentin by grinding. the specime...

Although the polymerization reaction in light-cured orthodontic adhesive continues for some time after light irradiation, it is unclear whether insufficiently irradiated adhesive develops sufficient bond strength. This in vitro study examined the maturation of bond strength after exposure of a variety of light doses. Large metal brackets were bonded to the enamel of 288 bovine mandibular inciso...

background dentin sensitivity is one of the most important problems in dentistry. enamel loss due to root exposure is serious issue and common exposure is one of the reasons for dentin hypersensitivity. there are different methods for solving this problem. one of the most conservative and least expensive methods is use of casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (cpp-acp) paste. object...

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this study was to compare the push-out bond strength of white ProRoot Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA), Biodentine, calcium-enriched mixture (CEM) cement and Endosequence Root Repair Material (ERRM) putty after exposure to blood. METHODS AND MATERIALS A total of 96 root dentin slices with a standardized thickness of 1.00±0.05 mm and standardized canal spaces were r...

this study compared the push-out bond strength of endosequence root repair material (errm) and bioaggregate (ba), new bioceramic materials, to that of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) after incubation in phosphate-buffered saline (pbs), a synthetic tissue fluid, for either 1 week or 2 months.one-hundred and twenty root sections were filled with proroot mta, ba, or errm. each tested material was...

bond failure of brackets during orthodontic treatment is a common problem; which results in treatment interference, increased treatment time and prolonged clinical time for rebonding of failed brackets. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of coca-cola and a non-alcoholic beer on the shear bond strength and adhesive remnant index (ari) of orthodontic metal brackets in vitro.eig...
