AbstractScanning electron microscopy (SEM) investigations have been conducted to determine the influence of selected material on tissue/material bonding. Extracted human teeth were used in this study. Several resin composites were tested as dental fillings. To reveal the structure of the tissue/filling interface, the teeth were cut parallel to the long axis. Bonding quality was determined by direct SEM observation and microanalysis with X-ray energy spectrometry (EDX). The investigated materials show good bonding with enamel.
