Background: To assess the shear bond strength (SBS) of four calcium silicate-based cements (CSCs) to composite resin using a universal adhesive in self-etch (SE) and etch-and-rinse (ER) modes and to evaluate surface microstructure and chemical composition of CSCs after acid-etching.
Methods: In total, 30 specimens of each cement, Biodentine (BD), mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) Angelus (MTA-A), ProRoot MTA (MTA-P) and MTA Repair HP (MTA-HP), were prepared and assigned into 2 groups (n = 15) according to universal adhesive (Clearfil Universal Bond Quick) applied in SE and ER mode. After composite resin (Clearfil Majesty Esthetic) was applied, the SBS was measured. Scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) analysis was used to evaluate the changes in surface structure and elemental composition.
Results: MTA-P demonstrated significantly higher SBS than all CSCs, except for MTA-HP in the SE mode. The ER mode exhibited significantly higher SBS compared to the SE mode for MTA-P and MTA-A. Acid-etching caused morphological differences and affected elemental distribution.
Conclusions: MTA-P may be a more suitable pulp capping material due to its superior SBS compared to BD and MTA-A. The application of a universal adhesive in ER mode may be suggested to increase the SBS of MTA-P and MTA-A to composite resin.

Background: Recurrent caries were attributed to the lack of antibacterial properties of the dental materials. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and calcium fluoride nanoparticles (CaF2NPs) are broad-spectrum antibacterial agents. The object of the study was to investigate the antibacterial properties of composite-incorporated AgNPs and CaF2NPs on .

Early childhood caries (ECC), one of the most common health problems among children aged six years and below, is considered present when one or more surfaces of a tooth are decayed, missing, or filled. Not only does ECC cause pain for a long time, but it also has short- and long-term health consequences in children. In order to treat ECC, holistic management that includes preventive, restorative, and prosthetic intervention is necessary.

Objective: To evaluate the 36-month clinical performance of Single Bond Universal Adhesive (SBU; 3M ESPE, Germany) in non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) using different modes of adhesion according to the FDI criteria. The primary outcome was the retention loss of the restorations, while the secondary outcomes included marginal staining, marginal adaptation, post-operative sensitivity and tooth vitality, recurrence of caries erosion and abfraction, and tooth integrity, all evaluated according to the FDI criteria.
Materials And Methods: In this study, the SBU Adhesive was applied to 246 NCCLs of 25 patients using different modes of adhesion: Self-etch (SE), selective-enamel-etching (SLE), and etch-and-rinse (ER).

Objective: To compare the translucency and contrast ratio of 13 different resin based restorative materials and to evaluate the effect of 2 different bleaching methods on the translucency and contrast ratio of these materials.
Methods: In this study, a total of 260 samples were prepared, 20 from each of 13 different dimethacrylate-based restorative materials. Then, each material group was divided into 4 subgroups.

Objectives: To compare the mechanical performance of partially replaced (repaired) intra-coronal restorations to totally replaced ones in root canal-treated teeth.
Methods: Thirty maxillary second premolars were selected according to strict criteria, mounted on moulds, and had mesio-occluso-distal (MOD) cavities prepared. Resin composite restorative material was used to perform the initial restoration, followed by aging procedures using thermo-mechanical cycling fatigue to replicate six months of intraoral aging.
