Objectives: Evaluating the bond strength (σ) of resin cement systems (RXA - RelyX ARC; RXU - RelyX U100; and PF - Panavia F) to dentin and yttria-stabilized zirconia-based ceramic (YZ - In-Ceram YZ) after different surface treatments and aging.

Methods: Occlusal dentin of 54 human molars was exposed and conditioned following manufacturers' instructions. Fifty-four YZ blocks were sintered and divided into two groups according to surface treatment: PA - airborne particle abrasion, and SC - tribochemical silica coating. All treated YZ blocks were cemented to dentin using one of the cement systems (RXA, RXU, and PF) following manufacturers' recommendations, which includes specific silane agents. Teeth-cement-ceramic blocks were stored in 37°C distilled water for 24h before cutting into non-trimming bar-shaped specimens (adhesive area, A=1±0.1mm(2)). Specimens (n≥12) were assigned to one of the following conditions: N - no storage; W - stored in 37°C distilled water for 60days; and TC - thermal cycling (5-55°C; 10,000 cycles). All specimens were loaded in tension (F) to failure using a universal testing machine. The σ (F/A) was calculated and data were statistically analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey tests (α=0.05). Fracture surfaces were examined to determine the failure mode.

Results: RXA-SC and PF-PA specimens showed the greatest mean σ values after N (13.9 and 13.0MPa, respectively) and TC (12.9 and 14.8MPa, respectively). SC-treated showed greater mean σ values than PA-treated YZ specimens after W.

Significance: Regardless of the cement used, W and TC did not significantly reduce the σ of SC-treated YZ resin bonded to dentin.

The influence of halogen-mediated interactions on halogen abstraction reactions by formyl radicals.

This article reports a theoretical study on the halogen exchange reactions YX + CHO → Y + XCHO (with Y = F, Cl, Br; X = Cl, Br, I) carried out at a high level of accuracy using coupled-cluster based methodologies including CCSD(T)-F12, CCSD(T)/CBS and CCSDT(Q). Most of the reactions are exothermic at room temperature, with the exception of the reactions FI + CHO → F + ICHO and ClI + CHO → Cl + ICHO. Exothermicity follows two concurrent trends established by the strength of the bonds being cleaved and formed: Y = F < Cl < Br (X-Y bond strength) and X = Cl > Br > I (C-X bond strength).

The quality of the enamel plays a critical role in the retention and performance of orthodontic brackets. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effect of resin infiltration pretreatment on the shear bond strength (SBS) of orthodontic brackets. An electronic search was conducted in October 2024 using PubMed, Web of Science (WoS), and Scopus databases, employing the keywords (resin infiltration AND bracket); (ICON AND bracket).

The aim of this study is to evaluate the shear bond strength of different universal adhesives applied to intact, demineralized, and remineralized enamel surfaces with total-etch and self-etch modes and to examine the effect of universal adhesives on the Ca/P mineral atomic and mass ratios of these enamel with FE-SEM/EDX (Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy) analysis. For this study, 264 bovine incisors were used. Samples in the demineralized and remineralized groups were kept in demineralization solution at 37 °C for 96 h to make an artificial initial carious lesion.

Recently, photoactivated riboflavin (RF) treatments have been approved to improve resin-dentin bonding by enhancing dentinal collagen crosslinking. This study aimed to evaluate whether RF activated by blue light (BL, 450 nm) strengthens the collagen matrix, increases resistance to enzymatic degradation, and improves adhesion as effectively as ultraviolet A (UVA, 375 nm) activation. Six groups were examined: control (no treatment); RF0.

This study evaluated the effect of resin cements and post-space irrigation solutions on the push-out bond strength of diabetic and non-diabetic dentin. A total of 160 human central teeth (80 diabetic, 80 non-diabetic) were prepared using X5 files and obturated with AH Plus sealer and X5 gutta-percha. Post spaces were prepared, and teeth were divided into eight groups based on resin cements (Variolink N, Panavia SA Universal) and irrigation protocols (saline, saline + 2% CHX).
