Introduction: This study examined the hypothesis that the shear-bond strengths of AH Plus (AH) and Hybrid Root Seal (HRS) to root dentin might be optimized by using a powdered dentin-reinforced bonding procedure.

Methods: The surfaces of root halves obtained from extracted human premolars were ground (800-grit silicon carbide paper), treated (5.25% NaOCl 17% EDTA for 5 minutes followed by distilled water) and randomly allocated into two groups according to the sealer and then into three subgroups according to bonding procedure.

Objectives: The aim of this finite elemental stress analysis study was to evaluate the effect of cavity shape and hybrid layer on the stress distribution of the mandibular premolar tooth under occlusal loading.

Methods: The mandibular premolar tooth was selected as the model based on the anatomical measurements suggested by Wheeler. Four different mathematical models were evaluated: 1) a saucer-shaped non-carious cervical lesion restored with a composite without a hybrid layer, 2) a saucer-shaped non-carious cervical lesion restored with a composite with a hybrid layer, 3) a wedge-shaped non-carious cervical lesion restored with a composite without a hybrid layer, and 4) a wedge-shaped non-carious cervical lesion restored with a composite with a hybrid layer.

Objectives: The aim of this finite elemental stress analysis study was to evaluate the effect of a hybrid layer and the hybrid layer thickness on the shear stress distribution in mandibular premolar teeth under occlusal loading.

Methods: The mandibular premolar tooth was selected based on the anatomical measurements suggested by Wheeler. The analysis was performed with a computer with the SAP 2000 structural analysis program.

Objectives: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of multiple consecutive adhesive coatings of a one-step self-etch adhesive on microleakage of Class V cavities.

Methods: Standardized box shaped Class V cavities were prepared onto the buccal side of forty five non-carious human premolar teeth. The teeth were randomly divided into three groups of fifteen teeth in each and restored as: Group I- one-step self-etch adhesive resin (Clearfil S3, Kuraray Co.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of multiple consecutive coatings of a one-step self-etch adhesive system (Clearfil Tri-S Bond) on the microtensile bond strength (MBS) to dentin.

Methods And Materials: Nine caries-free human lower third molars were sectioned perpendicular to the long axis to expose the mid-coronal dentin. The teeth were separated into three experimental groups (n=3) according to the number of adhesive resin coats applied.

This in vitro study observed and compared the resin and non-carious sclerotic dentin interfaces generated by three different adhesives and two different techniques, using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Thirty-two human premolars, with buccal, non-carious cervical lesions, were used. The teeth were randomly divided into eight groups.

Objective: This in vitro study evaluated the microleakage of Class V cavities restored with a resin composite and different adhesive systems after occlusal loading.

Methods & Materials: Standardized box-shaped Class V cavities were prepared on the buccal side of 135 non-carious human premolars. The teeth were randomly divided into three groups of 45 premolars each and restored as follows: Group 1-two-step total-etch adhesive (Single Bond, 3M) + resin composite (Supreme, 3M ESPE); Group 2-two-step self-etch adhesive (Clearfil SE, Kuraray) + resin composite and Group 3-one-step self-etch adhesive (Xeno III, Dentsply) + resin composite.

Aim: The purpose of this in vitro study was to examine the effect of two different finishing systems on the surface roughness of different types of composite restorative materials.

Methods And Materials: Thirty specimens, 8 mm in diameter and 3 mm in depth, were prepared using a microfill composite (Clearfil ST, Kuraray Co. Ltd.
