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.
Article Synopsis
- This study examined how two antibacterial disinfectants, chlorhexidine gluconate and Listerine Miswak, affect the microleakage of a new bulk-fill composite in tooth cavities.
- Thirty premolar teeth were divided into three groups: a control group without disinfectant, a group treated with chlorhexidine, and a group treated with Listerine, with their microleakage performance evaluated after aging treatments.
- Findings showed that chlorhexidine improved the seal in dentin margins compared to the control group, while there were no significant differences in microleakage between the Listerine and chlorhexidine groups.
