Dentin bond strength and marginal adaption after NaOCl pre-treatment.

The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the dentin bond strength and marginal adaptation of direct composite resins with and without additional NaOCl treatment after the etching process. A total of 150 cavities were prepared into disks of freshly extracted human third molars and filled with direct composite resins. Dentin adhesives of the fourth (with total etching: Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Plus, EBS, and Solid Bond), and fifth generation (one-bottle adhesives: Prime&Bond 2.
