Effect of loading on the microtensile bond strength and microleakage of a self-etching and etch-and-rinse adhesive in direct Class II MOD composite restorations in vitro.

The effect of loading on microleakage and microtensile bond strength of MOD composite restorations bonded with either self-etching or etch-and-rinse adhesive was investigated. MOD cavities were prepared in 28 extracted molar teeth. 14 teeth were bonded with a one-step self-etching adhesive (G-Bond) and 14 with an etch-and-rinse adhesive (Optibond Solo Plus) then restored with resin composite.

Effect of resin coating on adhesion and microleakage of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing fabricated all-ceramic crowns after occlusal loading: a laboratory study.

This study investigated the effect of resin coating and occlusal loading on adhesion and microleakage of all-ceramic crowns. Molars were prepared for an all-ceramic crown and were divided into two groups: non-coated (control) and resin-coated with Clearfil Tri-S Bond. Crowns were fabricated using CEREC 3 and cemented using Clearfil Esthetic Cement.
