AI Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the bonding strength of dental materials in buffalo, bovine, and human enamel, as well as their susceptibility to acid etching.
- Twenty samples each from human, bovine, and buffalo teeth were tested using a microshear method after being treated with 37% phosphoric acid, and the surface patterns were analyzed with scanning electron microscopy.
- The results revealed no significant difference in adhesive bonding strength between buffalo and human enamel, indicating that buffalo enamel behaves similarly to human enamel in bonding tests and acid conditioning.
Article Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to compare the bonding strength of dental materials in buffalo (), bovine, and human enamel and the susceptibility of these substrates in acid etching.
Materials And Methods: A total of 20 human third molars, 20 bovine incisors, and 20 buffalo incisors were used in a mechanical assay of microshear. The substrates were demineralized via conditioning with 37% phosphoric acid, and the ultra-morphological pattern of each substrate was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy.
Results: The results showed that there was no significant difference in adhesive bonding strength values between buffalo and human enamel (≥0.05), with a fracture pattern of mixed type for all experimental groups.
Conclusion: The results indicate that buffalo enamel is similar to human dental substrate in tests of adhesive bonding strength and also show a similar behavior in the acid conditioning of the enamel.
