Erupted and impacted teeth from young (12 to 24 years of age) and older persons (over 50 years of age) were bonded by a standard technique using etching times of 0, 15, 30, and 60 seconds. Two subgroups of teeth were soaked for 7 days and compared with those in the remainder of the group. Test specimens were loaded in shear to bond failure by means of a testing machine with a 200- kg load cell and a crosshead speed of 5 mm/minute. Results indicated insignificant bond-strength differences between young-impacted and young-erupted teeth for any given etching time. Very small bond-strength differences were found for various etching times (15, 30, and 60 seconds). A significant difference was found between 24-hour soak and 7-day soak for the etching times of 30 and 60 seconds only.

In microfluidic chips, glass free-form microchannels have obvious advantages in thermochemical stability and biocompatibility compared to polymer-based channels, but they face challenges in processing morphology and quality. Hence, picosecond laser etching with galvanometer scanning is proposed to machine spiral microfluidic channels on a glass substrate. The objective is to disperse and sort microparticles from a glass microchip that is difficult to cut.

Objective: To study the durability of the anti-demineralization effects of fluoride varnish after being applied to dental root surfaces.
Methods: Coronal and radicular dentin samples were prepared from extracted human teeth. Duraphat (DP) was applied to the dentine surfaces to form a protective film.

Background: Short dentin etching, a relatively recent technique, aims to improve resin-dentin bonding by preserving hydroxyapatite crystals within the collagen spaces. This study explores short dentin etching's potential in mitigating over-etching issues in deep proximal dentin/cementum margins, an aspect not previously investigated. This study evaluates the microtensile bond strength (μTBS) and marginal adaptation of two universal adhesives using different etch-and-rinse strategies (15-second and 3-second etching) and self-etch strategies, both immediate and post-thermal cycling and mechanical loading.

A micro-nano sharkskin like film (Cu-MNS-FA) was synthesized on copper surface through chemical etching followed by formate passivation, and its anticorrosive, antibacterial and thermal conductivity properties were investigated. Results show that after 7 d of exposure to nature, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Desulfovibrio vulgaris seawater, the charge transfer resistance of Cu-MNS-FA is more than three times higher than that of unmodified copper. In particular, in D.

Background: Repairing composite resins is a less invasive alternative to complete restoration replacement. To achieve a successful bond between the existing and newly applied composite materials, various surface preparation methods, such as sandblasting and acid etching, have been explored. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of different surface treatments on the repair bond strength of a universal nanohybrid composite resin restorative material before and after thermal aging, by utilizing a micro-shear bond strength (µSBS) test.
