ABSTRACT Aim The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of the Grander technology in reducing the surface tension and contact angle of self-etch adhesive system. Materials and methods Distilled water and Xeno III self-etch adhesive system (Dentsply) were modified by physical contact with the flexible unit Grander system to revitalize water, for 48 hours, resulting in four groups: Group CW-distilled water under normal conditions; Group CA-Xeno III adhesive system under normal conditions; Group GW-distilled water system modified by the Grander system; Group GA-Xeno III adhesive system modified by the Grander system. Surface tension and contact angle of the adhesive system and water in normal and Grandermodified conditions was measured with a goniometer. ANOVA and Tukey test were used to analyze the results (5%). Results and conclusion For surface tension, ANOVA showed p < 0.05, what indicated significant differences between the groups. The mean values (D/cm) for the groups were: CW-72.4 a; GW-69.45 b; GA: 31.17 c; CA-29.98 c. The results showed a significant reduction of surface tension for distilled water modified by Grander system. Grander technology did not interfere in the surface tension and contact angle physical properties of the Xeno III self-etch adhesive system. Clinical significance Grander technology is a method that revitalizes water by physical spatial restructuring of its molecules. The modify of an adhesive system, also a liquid with an aqueous solvent, can provide a reduction in surface tension and contact angle, increasing its wetness capacity and therefore ensuring a greater diffusibility.

Background : White Spot Lesion (WSL) is caused by Streptococcus Mutan which causes demineralization of teeth. One of the treatments of WSL is topical application of fluoride which aims to remineralize the teeth. However, if topical fluoride treatment does not give satisfactory results, alternative treatments can be made using restorative treatments, one of which is veneers. The procedure for applying veneers requires the application of an adhesive system. The adhesive system used to apply veneers is self-etch and total-etch. Several references state that the application of fluoride which aims to remineralize teeth can influence the adhesiv strength of the restorative material using self etch and total-etch techniques. Purpose : To determine the effect of composite resin adhesion strength between total-etch and self etch techniques on enamel after fluoride application. Review : Literature sources used in the preparation of the article through several databases with descriptions of the effects of fluoride application before total-etch and/or self etch administration. From the existing references, it was found that the application of fluoride before the total-etch system had a less significant effect on the adhesiv strength. Whereas in the self etch system, fluoride application has a significant effect on the adhesiv strength. Conclusion : More references say that the application of fluoride before the total-etch system has a better adhesive strength than the application of fluoride before the self etch system

SUMMARY The purpose of this study was to evaluate the push-out strength of two different adhesive cements (total etch and self-adhesive) for glass fiber post (GFP) cementation using two different techniques (microbrush and elongation tip) of cement application. In addition, this study evaluated the effect of total-etch conditioning before the use of a self-adhesive cement. Sixty premolar specimens with a single root canal were selected, endodontically treated, and shaped for GFP cementation. The specimens were randomly placed into one of six groups according to the cement and technique used: RelyX ARC (ARC): ARC + microbrush, ARC + elongation tip; RelyX Unicem (RU): RU + microbrush, RU + elongation tip; or RelyX Unicem + 37% phosphoric acid (RUE): RUE + microbrush, RUE + elongation tip. Each specimen root was cut perpendicular to the vertical axis yielding six 1.0-mm-thick sections. Push-out strength test was performed, followed by statistical analysis using three-way analysis of variance and the Games-Howell test (p&lt;0.05). Statistically significant differences between the groups were found (p&lt; 0.05). The cervical third of the roots had the highest mean push-out strength values, while the apical third had the lowest mean values regardless of the technique used. The elongation technique produced higher mean push-out strength values compared to the microbrush technique. The self-etch adhesive cement had the highest mean push-out strength value in all thirds. The addition of a conditioning step before the self-etch adhesive cementation appears to be effective in enhancing push-out strength with GFPs.

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the influence of Expasyl® gingival retraction paste on the shear bond strength of self-etch and total-etch adhesive systems. Materials and methods Twenty-four specimens of extracted, caries-free, sound human molars were used in this study. The molars were then cut vertically into halves through the buccal and lingual cusps. Forty-eight specimens were divided into four groups (total-etch, total-etch with Expasyl application, self-etch, self-etch with Expasyl application) and the shear bond strength was tested. Results Expasyl significantly reduced the shear bond strength of the self-etch and total-etch adhesive systems. The self-etch system showed relatively lower performance compared with the total-etch adhesive system. The shear bond strength values of the total-etch adhesive without Expasyl showed the highest bond strength (21.48 ± 2.89), while the self-etching group adhesive treated with Expasyl showed the lowest shear bond strength value (14.89 ± 1.81). Conclusion From the observations of this in vitro study, it can be concluded that the use of Expasyl® gingival retraction system can negatively affect bond strength of adhesives. The total-etch system showed better compatibility to the Expasyl gingival retraction system than the self-etch. How to cite this article Al Baker AMA, El Araby A, Al Amri MD, Sukumaran A.

Background: Resin-based composites (RBCs) provide excellent esthetics but the marginal micro-leakage in the proximal cavities remains a major concern. The aim of the present study was to assess the ability of various dental RBCs and techniques utilized for sealing deep dentin margin in class-II cavities. Methods: Box-cavities (class-II) on the distal and mesial surfaces of extracted (premolar) teeth were prepared with a gingival margin placed 1mm apical to the cemento-enamel junction. Teeth with prepared class II cavities were randomly divided into four study groups according to the type of restorative materials (conventional RBC; bulk-fill RBC; conventional RBC lined with flowable RBC and conventional RBC lined with resin-modified glass-ionomer-cement (GIC) as open sandwich-technique). Each group was further subdivided into a total-etch subgroup in which a separate etching step was performed before applying the bonding agent and a self-etch subgroup in which a self-etch adhesive system was used (n = 10). For each group, cavities were restored using the respective restorative materials and techniques, subjected to 1000 thermocycles, and placed in the methylene-blue dye. The specimen teeth were sectioned for further microscopic examination for micro-leakage. Results: The least dye penetration values were reported for group 4 (GIC) followed by the group Bulk-fill using the self-etch adhesive system (group 2b). The highest dye penetration was reported for the group Bulk-fill using the total-etch adhesive system (2a), followed by the group conventional RBC using the total-etch adhesive system). The total-etch adhesive system had significantly greater micro-leakage compared to the self-etch adhesive system (1a) (p = 0.026). Conclusions: The self-etch adhesive system significantly reduced the micro-leakage compared to the total-etch system. Bulk-fill RBC when bonded with the self-etch adhesive provided good marginal sealing ability comparable to open sandwich-technique using GIC.

The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical performance of composite restorations placed with different adhesive systems in primary teeth. In 32 patients, 128 composite restorations were placed using a split-mouth design as follows (4 groups/patient): three-step etch-and-rinse (Group 1), two-step etch-and-rinse (Group 2), two-step self-etch (Group 3), and one-step self-etch (Group 4). The restorations were clinically evaluated at baseline and at 6, 18, and 36 months according to the FDI criteria. There was no significant difference between the adhesive systems in retention of the restorations (p>0.05). Over time, there was a statistically significant decrease in marginal adaptation in all groups, whereas surface and marginal staining significantly increased in Groups 3 and 4 (p<0.05). The etch-and-rinse adhesive systems resulted in better marginal adaptation than the self-etch adhesive systems (p<0.05). It was concluded that preetching of the primary enamel might help improve the clinical performance of the self-etch adhesive systems in primary teeth.

A simulation method was used to study the effects of physical parameters, including the contact angle between molten metal and material of orifice, surface tension and viscosity on particle formation of POEM. Droplets can be stably obtained only when the contact angel is at least 90° or larger, as well as the surface tension is adequate. Within a wide range, viscosity has little effect on droplet formation; as the viscosity increases, necking time is postponed and vibration time is shortened.

Introduction Quality and durability of enamel/composite interface essentially depend on an adhesive restorative system. Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of marginal adaptation of composite adhesive systems to enamel by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and to analyze the morphology of the enamel surface along margins of composite restorations, following exposure to cariogenic solution. Methods The study material included 56 extracted human third molars. Class V cavities were prepared with margins at enamel. Cavities were restored with Single Bond/Z250 and Single Bond/Filtek flow, using the total etch adhesive system, and Prompt-L-Pop/Z250 and Prompt-L-Pop/Filtek flow, using the self etch adhesive system. After the restorative procedure, the restorations were submitted to demineralization during 7 and 28 days. Samples were stored in a cariogenic solution (lactic acid, pH 4.5; 0.1 M) at 37?C or in deionized water (the control group). The margins of restorations and perimarginal enamel were examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The gap formations around restoration were measured on cervical, occlusal and approximate margins. Results The usage of the total etch adhesive system showed statistically significant lower marginal gap width around composite restoration, compared with the self etch system (p<0.01). The SEM examination also showed perimarginal enamel zones presenting several signs of demineralization and erosion (alteration of rods, porosities) after acting of a cariogenic solution, in both adhesive methods. Less alteration was found on the enamel surfaces not included in the perimarginal zone. Conclusion Treating the cavity with 35% phosphoric acid in the total etch system significantly improved the adaptation of the composite resins to enamel, compared with the self etch treatment. Stronger demineralization of the perimarginal enamel in a cariogenic solution was observed around all restorations in both adhesive systems.
