SUMMARY Objectives: To determine the use of α-hydroxy glycolic acid (GA) as a surface pretreatment for dental restorative applications. The etching pattern of GA pretreatment of dental hard tissues was assessed by surface microhardness and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The effectiveness of GA surface etching on the enamel and dentin resin bond strengths was assessed using two etchant application modes (rubbing and no rubbing) and three adhesive systems (Single Bond [SB], One Step Plus [OSP], and Scotchbond Universal [SBU]). Methods: Knoop microhardness measurements were carried out on polished enamel and dentin surfaces before and after treatment with 35% GA, 35% phosphoric acid (PA), or distilled water (control group) for 30 seconds. The microtensile bond strength test was carried out on enamel and dentin. Ultrastructural analysis of the surface and interfacial interaction was qualitatively accomplished using SEM. Results: Etching with either PA or GA significantly decreased the enamel microhardness, with GA being significantly less aggressive than PA (p<0.001), while both acids showed similar decreases in dentin microhardness (p=0.810). SEM revealed similar etching patterns of GA and PA, while apparently a thinner hybrid layer was observed for GA groups. In dentin, the bond strengths were statistically similar between PA and GA groups, regardless of the etchant application mode (p>0.05). However, rubbing of GA enhanced the bond strength to enamel. PA and GA significantly increased the SBU bond strength to enamel when compared to SB and OSP (p<0.05). Conclusions: GA effectively etched enamel and dentin surfaces, resulting in bond strength values similar to those associated with traditional PA. GA is a suitable enamel and dentin surface etchant for adhesive restorative procedures.

Objective. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different disinfectant agents on bond strength of two types of resin composite materials.Methods. A total of 80 sound posterior teeth were used. They were divided into four groups(n=20)according to the dentin surface pretreatment (no treatment, chlorhexidine gluconate 2%, sodium hypochlorite 4%, and EDTA 19%). Each group was divided into two subgroups according to the type of adhesive (prime and bond 2.1 and Adper easy one). Each subgroup was further divided into two subgroups according to the type of resin composite (TPH spectrum and Tetric EvoCeram). Shear bond strength between dentin and resin composite was measured using Universal Testing Machine. Data collected were statistically analyzed byt-test and one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’spost hoctest.Results. It was found that dentin treated with EDTA recorded the highest shear bond strength values followed by sodium hypochlorite and then chlorhexidine groups while the control group showed the lowest shear bond strength.Conclusions. The surface treatment of dentin before bonding application has a great effect on shear bond strength between resin composite and dentin surface.

Connecting prostheses to the implant abutments has become a concern and achieving a satisfactory retention has been focused in cement-retention prostheses recently. Sandblasting is a method to make a roughened surface for providing more retention. The aim of this study was to compare effects of nano and micro airborne abrasive particles (ABAP) in roughening surface of implant abutments and further retention of cemented copings. Thirty Xive abutments and analogues (4.5 D GH1) were mounted vertically in self-cured acrylic blocks. Full metal Ni-Cr copings with a loop on the top were fabricated with appropriate marginal adaptation for each abutment. All samples were divided into 3 groups: first group (MPS) was sandblasted with 50 µm Al2O3 micro ABAP, second group (NSP) was sandblasted with 80 nm Al2O3 nano ABAP, and the third group (C) was assumed as control. The samples were cemented with provisional cement (Temp Bond) and tensile bond strength of cemented copings was evaluated by a universal testing machine after thermic cycling. The t test for independent samples was used for statistical analysis by SPSS software (version 15) at the significant level of 0.05. Final result showed significant difference among all groups (p<0.001) and MPS manifested the highest mean retention (207.88±45.61 N) with significant difference among other groups (p<0.001). The control group showed the lowest bond strength as predicted (48.95±10.44 N). Using nano or micro ABAP is an efficient way for increasing bond strengths significantly, but it seems that micro ABAP was more effective.

ABSTRACT Objective The purpose of the current in-vivo study was to assess the effect of using 0.12% chlorhexidine (CHX) mouth rinse, before bonding, on shear bond strength of polycarbonate brackets bonded with composite adhesive. Subjects and methods Eighteen orthodontic patients with a mean age 21.41 ± 1.2 years, who were scheduled to have 2 or more first premolars extracted, were included in this study. Patients were referred for an oral prophylaxis program which included, in part, the use of a mouth rinse. Patients were divided into 2 groups, a test group of 9 patients who used 0.12% CHX gluconate mouth rinse twice daily and a control group of 9 patients who used a mouth rinse without CHX, but with same color. After 1 week, polycarbonate brackets were bonded to first premolars with Transbond XT composite adhesive. Premolars were extracted after 28 days and tested for shear bond strength on a universal testing machine. Student's t-test was used to compare shear bond strengths of both groups. Results No statistically significant difference was found in bond strengths’ values between both groups. The test group (with CHX) has mean shear bond strength of 14.21 ± 2.42 MPa whereas the control group (without CHX) revealed a mean strength of 14.52 ± 2.31 MPa. Conclusion The use of 0.12% CHX mouth rinse, for one week before bonding, did not affect the shear bond strength of polycarbonate brackets bonded with Transbond composite. Furthermore, these brackets showed clinically acceptable bond strength. How to cite this article Hussein FA, Hashem MI, Chalisserry EP, Anil S.

This study was designed to evaluate the shear bond strength of an adhesive/composite system subjected to different pretreated polyetheretherketone (PEEK) surfaces using different thermocycling conditioning methods. A total of 128 specimens were equally divided into four main groups ( n = 32/group): control (no pretreatment), air abrasion, argon plasma pretreatment, and femtosecond laser groups. The surface topographies and surface roughness were observed by atomic force microscopy after different pretreatments. The specimens were bonded with SE Bond/Clearfil AP-X™. All bonded specimens were stored in distilled water at 37°C for 24 h. Afterward, each group was divided into three subgroups ( n = 8/group) as follows: (a) stored in water for 56 h (37°C); (b) thermal aging for 5000 cycles (5°C/55°C); and (c) thermal aging for 10,000 cycles (5°C/55°C). The shear bond strengths were measured. Air abrasion, argon plasma pretreatment, and femtosecond laser significantly strengthened the bond of SE Bond/Clearfil AP-X™ to PEEK composite compared with that without additional pretreatment. In the same surface pretreatment, the shear bond strengths of specimens conditioned using water storage were higher than that using thermocycles (TCs). Additionally, the specimens with 5000 TC showed significantly higher shear bond strength than that with 10000 TC.

Abstract Background: The optimal bonding of adhesives to dentin requires the sealer to be completely removed from dentinal walls. This study compared the efficacy of different sealer removal protocols on the microtensile bond strengths (MTBS) of single step adhesives to a calcium silicate-based bioceramic root canal sealer contaminated dentin. Methods: Standardized box-shaped Class I cavities were prepared in human lower third molars (N=50). All cavities were contaminated with a bioceramic root canal sealer (Endosequence BC Sealer, Brasseler, Savannah, USA), except the control group cavities. For the experimental groups, dentin surfaces were wiped with dry cotton pellets, cotton pellets saturated with water or rinsed with an air water syringe for 5 seconds, or applied aqueous ultrasonic scaler for 5 seconds prior to restoration procedure. All the cavity surface was restored with a one-bottle universal adhesive and composite resin. All the specimens were subjected to both thermocycling and mechanical loading. The restored specimens were sectioned into resin-dentin beams for mictotensile bond strength (Mtbs) evaluation. Additional specimens were prepared for scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to examination of dentin-adhesive interface (N=10).Results: The Mtbs for the 5 groups, the control, dry cotton, wet cotton, water rinse, and ultrasonic rinse group, were 13.42 ± 4.68, 11.96 ± 5.26, 13.03±6.07, 12.73±3.68, and 14.39±4.22 MPa, respectively. No significant difference was found between the mean bond strengths of the groups (p=0.725). In SEM examination no residual sealer was found in any group. Conclusions: Calcium silicate-based bioceramic sealer was removed from the dentin surface with all removal protocols when evaluated with Mtbs after thermal and mechanical cycle tests.

Abstract Objective: To determine the effects of thermocycling on shear bond strengths (SBSs) of a self-etching primer (SEP) after 0, 2000, and 5000 thermal cycles. Materials and Methods: Brackets were bonded to bovine incisors with two etching protocols. In the control group (conventional method) teeth were etched with 37% phosphoric acid. In the experimental group, an SEP (Transbond Plus) was applied as recommended by the manufacturer. Brackets were bonded with light-cure adhesive paste (Transbond XT) and light cured for 20 seconds in both groups. The SBSs were measured after water storage at 37°C for 24 hours, after 2000 and 5000 cycles of thermocycling between 5°C and 55°C. Bond failure location was determined with the Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI). Results: In the control group, SBSs did not show any significant differences among 0, 2000, and 5000 thermal cycles. However, in group SEP, SBSs decreased with 2000 and 5000 thermal cycles, and these decreases were significantly different from no thermocyling (P &lt; .001). A significant difference was observed between ARI scores of the control group with 5000 thermal cycles and group SEP with no thermal cycles (P &lt; .003). In addition, a significant difference was found between group SEP with no thermocycling and with 5000 thermal cycles (P &lt; .003). Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that the SEP (Transbond Plus) provides clinically acceptable bond strength values compared with the conventional method after thermocycling.

SUMMARY This study investigated the effect of loading on the bond strength to dentin and microleakage of MOD indirect composite restorations bonded with self-adhesive and self-etching resin cements with or without acid etching of the proximal enamel margins. Class II MOD cavities were prepared in 48 molar teeth into dentin and divided into three groups of 16 teeth. Impressions were taken and indirect composite inlays fabricated (Estenia C & B). The enamel margins of the proximal boxes of half the specimens were phosphoric acid etched, and the inlays were cemented with one of three cements (Panavia F 2.0, SA Cement, or Rely X Unicem). After luting, eight teeth in each cement group were mechanically loaded at 2.5 cycles/s for 250,000 cycles. Unloaded teeth acted as controls. Teeth were stored in Rhodamine B solution for 24 hours, sectioned buccolingually at the proximal boxes to examine microleakage using confocal microscopy, and further sectioned for μTBS testing of the resin-dentin interface. Analysis of variance was performed to assess the effect of loading and acid etching on microleakage and bond strength. Acid etching had no effect on microleakage. No significant difference in the dentin bond strengths between the three cements existed after loading. Panavia F 2.0 exhibited a significant reduction in bond strength. With regard to microleakage at the proximal boxes, loading had no effect on dye penetration at the cavity floor. However, at the axial walls, loading had a significant deleterious effect on Panavia F 2.0. No difference in microleakage existed between the three cements at both sites before and after loading. In conclusion, the two tested self-adhesive cements exhibited similar bond strengths before and after loading to the self-etching resin cement. Loading reduced dentin bond strengths and increased microleakage at the resin-dentin interface. However, acid etching of the enamel margins had no significant effect on microleakage in the approximal regions of the bonded inlays.

Lasers are effective in debonding ceramic brackets. Unfortunately, while reducing the adhesive bond strength, lasers are also reported to increase pulpal temperature. The aim of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strengths and temperature increase levels after debonding ceramic brackets using an Er-YAG laser with or without water-cooling. Sixty polycrystalline upper premolar ceramic brackets were placed on the labial surface of sixty human premolar teeth which were randomly divided into three groups of twenty. A laser pulse at 5 W for 9 seconds was delivered to each bracket in both study groups either with water-cooling (water group) or without water-cooling (waterless group) using an Er-YAG laser. Debonding was performed 45 seconds after laser exposure and shear bond strengths were measured. Data comparison revealed a statistically significant difference between the groups. Mean temperature increases of 2.41°C and 4.59°C were recorded for the water and waterless laser groups, respectively. The shear bond strength value for the control group was 22.76 MPa and 10.46 and 6.36 MPa for the water and waterless laser groups, respectively. The application of Er-YAG laser with water-cooling was an efficient and safe method of debonding ceramic brackets.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of the application of antioxidant on the shear bond strengths (SBS) of orthodontic brackets bonded to human enamel after extra-coronal bleaching with hydrogen peroxide (HP). Materials and methods: Fifty freshly extracted premolars were randomly divided into three groups. One group (Group 1) was bleached with 40% HP (n=20), another group (Group 2) was bleached with 40% HP and activated with an Nd: YAG laser (n=20), and a control group (Group 3) received no treatment (n=10). After the bleaching procedure, Groups 1 and 2 were further divided into two subgroups (Group 1a, Group 1b, Group 2a, and Group 2b). Specimens in Groups 1a and 2a (n=10) received no antioxidant application. A 10% sodium ascorbate solution was applied to specimens in Groups 1b and 2b (n=10). The brackets were then bonded with light-cure adhesive paste to the enamel surfaces of all experimental groups. Specimens were subjected to SBS tests for debonding. Results: The SBS of brackets bonded in Groups 1 and 2 were significantly lower than those of brackets bonded to the control group (p<0.001); however, no statistically significant differences in SBS were noted in Groups 1 and 2 (p>0.001). The antioxidant-treated SBS of brackets in Groups 1b and 2b were significantly higher than those of Groups 1a and 2a (p<0.001). Conclusions: The application of 40% HP had a negative effect on the bond strength. The use of antioxidant for 15 min resulted in the reversal of failed bond strength.

Abstract Objective This study examined the effectiveness of different functional monomers in universal adhesives on zirconia/resin composite bond strength both before and after thermocycling. Four universal adhesives (G-premio bond universal, GPU; Clearfil Tri-S bond universal, CTB; Optibond Universal, OBU; Tetric N-bond universal; TNU), one adhesive (single bond 2; SB2), and one ceramic primer (Clearfil ceramic primer plus, CCP) were used in this study. Materials and Methods Zirconia discs were prepared and embedded in acrylic. Specimens were polished and sandblasted with alumina. The specimens were randomly divided into two groups (24 hours and the thermocycled), and each group was divided into six subgroups (n = 10), according to zirconia surfaces treatments: no Tx, CCP + SB2, GPU, CTB, OBU, TNU. An Ultradent mold was located on top of the treated zirconia surface. The resin composite was filled into the mold and then light-cured. A universal testing device was used to determine the shear bond strength. Statistical Analysis The data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test. Results After water storage for 24 hours, the shear bond strengths were GPU > CCP + SB2 = CTB = OBU = TNU > no Tx (p < 0.05). After thermocycling, the shear bond strengths were CCP + SB2 = GPU = CTB = TNU > OBU > no Tx (p < 0.05). Conclusion The universal adhesives containing 10-MDP exhibited the best performance in the shear bond strength of the zirconia/resin composite interface both before and after thermocycling.
