Background: This study aimed to assess the microshear bond strength (micro-SBS) of two universal adhesives with different pH values in etch-and-rinse (E and R) and self-etch (SE) modes to superficial dentin.
Materials And Methods: This experimental study evaluated 75 extracted sound human third molars. Superficial dentin was exposed by trimming the enamel and removing 0.
Background: Considering the increasing demand for tooth-colored restorations, this study sought to assess the micro-shear bond strength (μSBS) of composite to deep dentin by using mild and ultra-mild universal adhesives.
Materials And Methods: This , experimental study evaluated 75 sound third molar teeth randomized into five groups ( = 15) of Clearfil self-etch (SE) Bond (control), Tokuyama Universal Bond (TUB), and All-Bond Universal (ABU) in etch and rinse (E and R) and SE modes. The occlusal surfaces of the teeth were trimmed to expose deep dentin at 0.
Background: The main aim of restorative dentistry is to restore and preserve dental health with the use of appropriate restorative modalities to protect the pulp and restore its function. This study compared the effect of different surface treatments of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) on the bond strength of composite resin to MTA.
Materials And Methods: Forty cylindrical acrylic blocks with a hole were prepared and filled by ProRoot MTA.
