After inoculating the specimens with lactobacillus specie all the samples were arbitrarily divided into three groups based on the disinfection regime used (n=20).

Interaction of zirconium oxide nanoparticle infiltrated resin adhesive with dentin conditioned by phosphoric acid and Er, Cr: YSGG laser.

The aim was to prepare experimental adhesive (EA) with ZrO nanoparticles (ZEA) and without it; and its interaction with dentin conditioned with photodynamic therapy (PDT), etch and rinse, and Er, Cr: YSGG laser (ECL). Methods consisted of the scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), shear bond strength (SBS) failure mode, and rheological property analysis. The methods were employed to assess bond integrity; the shape of ZrO NPs and interfacial dentin and adhesive interaction.

Influence of methylene blue, Riboflavin, and indocyanine green on the bond strength of caries affected dentin when bonded to resin-modified glass ionomer cement.

Aim: The present study aimed to assess the influence of methylene blue (MBP), Riboflavin, and indocyanine green (ICG) on the bond strength of caries affected dentin (CAD) when bonded to resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC).

Materials And Methods: Human third molars with caries lesions were isolated and collected scrutinized based on ICDAS criteria. The teeth were cleaned using a periodontal scaler and disinfected.

An in vitro evaluation of microleakage of resin based composites bonded to chlorhexidine-pretreated dentin by different protocols of a universal adhesive system.

Purpose: This study compared microleakage of different resin based composite (RBC) materials bonded to dentin, after chlorhexidine (CHX) application, by different adhesion protocols of a universal adhesive system.

Methods: Class V cavities were prepared on the buccal and lingual surfaces of 40 premolar teeth. The "etch-and-rinse" technique of a universal bond adhesive system (Single Bond Universal Adhesive) was used on buccal preparations, while the "self-etch" protocol was used on the lingual surfaces.

Comparing the Ability of Various Resin-Based Composites and Techniques to Seal Margins in Class-II Cavities.

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. 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.

Impact of riboflavin and curcumin mediated photodynamic therapy and Er,Cr:YSGG on microleakage of class V resin glass ionomer restorations in permanent molar teeth.

Purpose: The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of PDT using curcumin and riboflavin as photosensitizers and Er,Cr:YSGG on microleakage in class V RMGIC restorations in permanent teeth.

Materials And Methods: Eighty permanent molars were investigated and randomly divided into 4 groups: control group: resin-modified glass ionomer restoration with no treatment, R-PDT: PDT with riboflavin, Cu-PDT: PDT with curcumin (Cu) and, Er,Cr:YSGG: laser application. All the teeth in each group were restored with the help of RMGIC.

Influence of ER-CR-YSGG Laser and Photodynamic Therapy on the Dentin Bond Integrity of Nano-Hydroxyapatite Containing Resin Dentin Adhesive: SEM-EDX, Micro-Raman, Micro-Tensile, and FTIR Evaluation.

The study aimed to analyze the effect of the addition of nano-hydroxyapatite (nano-HA) particles on the mechanical properties of experimental adhesive (EA). Furthermore, dentin interaction of EA (without nano-HA) and EA with nano-HA (hereon referred to as HA-10%) were also investigated and equated. Methods consisting of scanning electron microscopy (SEM)-energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), micro-Raman spectroscopy, micro-tensile bond strength (µTBS) test, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy were employed to study nano-HA particles shape, dentin bond strength, degree of conversion (DC), and adhesive-dentin interaction.

Push out bond strength of glass fiber post to radicular dentin irrigated with Nisin and MTAD compared to methylene blue photodynamic therapy.
