background: casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (cpp-acp) is applied for remineralization of early caries lesions or tooth sensitivity conditions and may affect subsequent resin bonding. this in vitro study investigated the effect of cpp-acp on the shear bond strength of dental adhesives to enamel. materials and methods: sixty extracted human molar teeth were selected and randomly...

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...

bonding brackets to the enamel surface has gained much popularity today. new adhesive systems have been introduced and marketed and a considerable increase in research regarding bond strength has been published. a considerable amount of these studies deal with shear bond strength of adhesives designed for orthodontic purpose. previous studies have used variety of test designs. this diversity in...

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...

background: esthetic demands among patients have led to the introduction of tooth-colored restorations. composite resins bond to enamel applying acid etch technique. total etch adhesion systems are still considered as golden standard among bonding systems. however, clinicians have tendency towards using adhesive systems with a simplified application procedure. the aim of the present study is to...

introduction :the aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the in vitro effect of the erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (er:yag) laser with different radiation distances and high-speed rotary treatment on the shear bond strength of flowable composite to enamel of human permanent posterior teeth . methods : freshly extracted human molar teeth with no caries or other surface defects were ...

background: dental surfaces prepared with different er:yag laser distance may have different characteristics compared with those prepared with conventional instruments. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of er:yag laser irradiation distance from enamel and dentin surfaces on the shear bond strength of composite with self-etch and etch and rinse bonding systems compared with con...

abstract statement of problem: there is no enough published data about the shear bond strength of resin modified glass ionomer adhesives on caries-affected primary tooth dentin excavated using minimally invasive systems. objectives: to evaluate the shear bond strength of 2 different adhesives (one resin modified glass ionomer and one resin) using two caries removal techniques on healthy and car...

introduction: the aim of this study was to assess shear bond strength of composite to dentin after air abrasion and laser treatment. methods: 40 human extracted molars divided into 4 groups (n=10) received the following treatments. group 1: carbide bur, group 2: air abrasion with aluminum oxide 50 μm, group 3: irradiated with erbium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (er: yag) laser (150 mj/20hz), g...

objective: different ceramic repair systems have been reported for fractured ceramics. however, limited information is available concerning the bond strength of these systems especially after thermocycling. the aim of this in-vitro study was to determine the effect of thermocycling on the shear bond strength of composite-resin to feldspathic porcelain with and without silane pretreatment. mater...
