Purpose: To evaluate the effects of three different radiation doses on the bond strengths of two different adhesive systems to enamel and dentin.
Materials And Methods: Eighty human third molars were randomly divided into four groups (n = 20) according to the radiation dose (control/no radiation, 20 Gy, 40 Gy, and 70 Gy). The teeth were sagittally sectioned into three slices: one mesial and one distal section containing enamel and one middle section containing dentin.
