Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the thickness of oxygen inhibition layer (OIL), produced on various composite materials, and to compare their interlayer shear bond strength (SBS), by treating the OIL with various agents.
Materials And Methods: The thickness of OIL of three different composite materials (120 specimens divided into three groups) Group 1 - Ivoclar Tetric N-Ceram (nanohybrid composite), Group 2 - Ivoclar Te Econom Plus (microhybrid composite), and Group 3 - GC EverX Posterior (a short glass fiber-reinforced composite) was evaluated. Each group was divided into four subgroups (A, B, C, and D) depending on the surface treatment given - no surface treatment (control group), ethanol, water spray, and grinding with SiC paper.
