Article Synopsis
  • The study compared 5th and 7th generation bonding agents to evaluate their effectiveness in preventing microleakage from a fluoride sealant in 40 extracted human premolar teeth.
  • Teeth were divided into two groups: one used a 5th generation bonding agent, while the other used a 7th generation agent, both treated with the same sealant.
  • Results indicated that the 5th generation agent had more microleakage, but the difference was not statistically significant; the 7th generation agent showed less microleakage and was easier to apply.

Context: There is a possibility of dentinal crack formation in primary teeth after root canal preparation using rotary files.

Aims: To evaluate and compare the effect of ProTaper-Gold and Kedo-S rotary files on crack formation after root canal preparation in primary molars.

Settings And Design: A total of 120 freshly extracted mandibular primary molars (6-9 years) were randomly divided into three groups of 40 each: ProTaper-Gold, Kedo-S, and Hand H-files, respectively.

Introduction: Fracture of anterior teeth is the most frequent type of injury in the permanent dentition. Composite materials have made possible the use of adhesive materials and techniques, but storage of fragment in the media can enhance the bond strength. The purpose was to evaluate the influence of storage media and duration of the fragment in the media on the bond strength of the reattached fragment of teeth.
