Previous studies have demonstrated the ability of the argon laser to polymerize light-activated materials and improve enamel shear bond strengths. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of the argon laser on dentin shear bond strengths of current dentin bonding systems. Argon laser (HGM Model 8) at 231 and 280 mW, 5 sec bonding agent, 10 sec composite, and a conventional curing light (Translux EC/Kulzer) at 10 sec bonding agent, 20 sec composite were used to polymerize samples of dentin bonding systems [Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Plus (3M) and Prime Bond (Dentsply/Caulk), both with TPH (Dentsply/Caulk) composite]. A flat dentin bonding site (600 grit) was prepared on the buccal surface of extracted human teeth. Twelve samples were made for each set of parameters for both laser and conventional light totaling 48 samples. Samples were stored in distilled water in light-proof containers for 24 h at 37 degrees C. Shear bond strengths (MPa) were determined for each sample on the Instron testing machine. Mean values were calculated for each set of data and ANOVA with Fisher PLSD were used for statistical analysis. The argon laser provided bond strengths that were 21-24% greater than those of the conventional curing light system.

A laboratory study evaluated the influence of a dentin desensitizer (D/Sense 2) on the microtensile bond strength of two adhesive systems: a self-etching primer (Bistite II SC) and a one-bottle adhesive (Prime & Bond 2.1). Sixteen crown dentin discs were obtained from extracted sound human third molars. Dentin surfaces were ground with 600 grit silicon carbide (SiC) abrasive papers to produce a standardized smear layer. Teeth were randomly divided into four groups (n=4). G1-D/Sense 2 + Prime & Bond 2.1; G2-D/Sense 2 + Bistite II SC; G3- and G4-dentin surfaces were bonded with Prime & Bond 2.1 and Bistite II SC, respectively, with no previous treatment with D/Sense 2. Eight mm high resin composite crowns (TPH Spectrum) were incrementally built-up on the treated surfaces. One sample from each group was prepared for evaluation of the hybrid layer on SEM. The specimens for the microtensile test were serially sectioned perpendicular to the adhesive layer to obtain 1 mm2 bounded sticks. Then, each stick was submitted to the microtensile test performed at a 0.5 mm/min crosshead speed. One-way ANOVA and Tukey test showed statistically significant differences among the groups (p<0.05). Values in MPa were: G1-17.85; G2-9.88; G3-35.16; G4-15.57. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the D/Sense 2 desensitizer decreased the bond strength of Prime & Bond 2.1 and Bistite II SC bonding systems.

The purpose of this in vitro study was to determine the effect of saliva (S) and blood (B) contamination on the dentine bond strength of two single-component dentine bonding systems. The occlusal thirds of 120 recently extracted, human molars were removed with a low speed saw and subsequently embedded in Bencor rings by means of self-curing, acrylic resin. The occlusal surfaces were ground wet on 600-grit silicone carbide paper in a polishing machine to expose superficial dentine and to create a smear layer. The teeth were randomly divided into 12 groups (n = 10). All the dentine surfaces were etched with 34% phosphoric acid for 15 seconds rinsed with water, air-dried for 3 seconds, leaving the surfaces visibly moist. For the control groups (C) the etched dentine surfaces were treated with either, Scotchbond 1 (SB1, 3M) or Prime & Bond NT (PBNT, Dentsply) according to the manufacturer's instructions. In the contaminated groups, the saliva or blood was applied by means of a disposable brush, left undisturbed for 1 minute, and the excess then thinned by air spray. The dentine bonding systems were then applied, also according to manufacturer's instructions. Composite (Z250 and TPH) and Compomer (F2000 and Dyract AP (D-AP)) stubs were packed and cured incrementally to the corresponding pretreated dentine surfaces. All specimens were stored for 24 hours under water at 37 degrees C. The bonds were then stressed to failure with a Zwick testing machine, operating at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. Fractured samples were examined in a Scanning Electron Microscope. The data were statistically analysed (Student-t test). The mean SBS (MPa) were. SB1 with Z250: C = 19.1 +/- 4.4; S = 17.3 +/- 3.5; B = 2.6 +/- 0.9; SB1 with F2000: C = 11.8 +/- 3.3; S = 9.7 +/- 1.8; B = 4.7 +/- 1.6. PBNT with TPH: C = 9.2 +/- 3.2; S = 6.5 +/- 3.0; B = 4.3 +/- 1.5; PBNT with D-AP: C = 10.2 +/- 3.6; S = 9.3 +/- 2.9 and B = 7.3 +/- 2.5. There was no statistical significant difference in shear bond strengths between the control and the saliva-contaminated samples for both systems. There was, however, a significant difference in bond strengths between the control and the blood-contaminated samples. Blood contamination negatively influenced bond strength of bonding systems to dentine.

This study evaluated the microtensile bond strength (pTBS) of ethanol/water- and acetone-based, one-bottle adhesive systems to enamel (E) and dentin (D) in the presence (P) or absence (A) of their respective solvents. Thirty-two freshly extracted third molars were flattened with 600-grit SiC paper and restored with Single Bond (SB) or Prime&Bond 2.1 (PB) according to the manufacturers' instructions and after full solvent elimination. The molars were divided into eight test groups (n = 4): G1-SB-E-P, G2-SB-E-A, G3-PBE-P, G4-PB-E-A, G5-SB-D-P, G6-SB-D-A, G7-PB-D-P and G8-PB-D-A. After applying the adhesive resins, composite crowns of approximately 8 mm were built up with TPH Spectrum composite. After 24-hour water storage, the specimens were serially sectioned bucco-lingually to obtain 0.8 mm slabs that were trimmed to an hourglass shape, approximately 0.8 mm2 at the bonded interface. The specimens were tested in tension using a universal testing machine (0.5 mm/minute). The results were statistically analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey test. The frequency of fracture mode was compared using the Kruskal-Wallis test. There were no statistically significant differences in mean bond strength among the groups restored with or without solvent for enamel. However, the results were significantly different for the dentin groups (MPa): G5-26.2 +/- 8.6a; G7-23.6 +/- 11.3ab; G6-12.8 +/- 2.1bc; G8-6.2 +/- 3.1c. SEM examination indicated that the dentin group failure modes were significantly different from the enamel groups. The results suggest that the presence of organic solvents does not influence microTBS to enamel. However, microTBS to dentin was significantly affected by the absence of solvents in the adhesive system.

This study evaluated the effect of cutting teeth with different types of burs at various speeds on shear bond strength using Prime and Bond NT (Dentsply/DeTrey). A simulated pulpal pressure of 25-mmHg, equivalent to 34 cmH2O, was created in a false pulpal chamber filled with distilled water and maintained for seven days. The human teeth were divided into six groups of 10 teeth each: fine grit straight fissure diamond bur in air rotor (DA), fine grit straight fissure diamond bur in micromotor (DM), crosscut fissure carbide bur in air rotor (CCA), crosscut fissure carbide bur in micromotor (CCM), plain fissure carbide bur in micromotor (CM) and #600-grit silicon carbide paper (SiC). The tooth surfaces in these groups were cut under copious air-water spray and treated with Prime and Bond NT after etching with 38% phosphoric acid. Composite restorations were then prepared with TPH spectrum (Dentsply/ DeTrey). After soaking in water at 37 degrees C for 24 hours, the specimens were loaded at a 45 degrees angle to their longitudinal axes by using a Z 010 Universal Testing Machine (Zwick), and shear bond strengths were determined at a crosshead speed of 2 mm/minute. All of the specimens were then observed under Stereomicroscope at 10x. Statistical analysis was made using one-way and two-way ANOVA and t-test (p < 0.05). The bond strengths achieved with a fine grit straight fissure diamond bur, a crosscut fissure carbide bur in air rotor and a crosscut fissure carbide bur in micromotor, were significantly higher than a fine grit straight fissure diamond bur, a plain fissure carbide bur and #600-grit silicon carbide abrasive paper in the micromotor. Therefore, selecting an appropriate bur and its speed may improve bonding for adhesive systems, although crosscut fissure carbide burs produced high bond strengths at either speed used.

This study tested the effects of long-term storage and aluminum oxide air abrasion on the bond strength of self-etching adhesive systems. Extracted human third molars were ground flat with 600-grit SiC paper to expose middle coronal dentin. Clearfil SE Bond and One-Up Bond F were applied to dentin surfaces in accordance with manufacturers instructions with or without previous aluminum oxide 50 microm air abrasion. A crown was built up with the resin composite TPH Spectrum and the specimens were stored in water for 24 hours. The bonded assemblies were vertically sectioned into beams for microtensile bond testing. The beams of each tooth were individually immersed in bottles containing water at 37 degrees C for one day, three and six months; the water was changed daily. The specimens were then subjected to microtensile bond testing. The bond strength data were subjected to ANOVA and Tukey Kramer test. Fractured specimens were analyzed in a scanning electron microscope to determine failure modes. Air abrasion improved Clearfil SE Bond bond strength in the three month evaluation. No significant difference was found between the two adhesives systems, but bond strengths gradually decreased over time. Failure modes varied significantly among groups and were influenced by long-term storage and aluminum oxide air abrasion.

This study evaluated the bond strength of resin composite to dentin, mediated by a self-etching adhesive, following the application of various dentin desensitizing treatments and artificial saliva storage. The buccal cervical areas of 24 extracted human third molars were ground flat to expose cervical dentin. The dentin surfaces were polished with 1200-grit SiC paper, then the teeth were randomly assigned to six groups, five desensitizing treatments and one control: Group I-VivaSens; Group II-Fluor Protector; Group III-Isodan; Group IV-Futura Bond NR; Group V-Nd:YAG laser and Group VI-Control (without application of a desensitizing agent). After applying the desensitizing treatments and storing the molars in artificial saliva for 14 days at 37 degrees C, Futura Bond NR was used to bond resin composite to dentin. TPH composite build-ups were constructed incrementally to a height of 5 mm. The teeth were sectioned to obtain bonded slices of 0.7 mm thick specimens containing the resin-composite joint. The specimens were then trimmed into an hourglass shape and subsequently subjected to microtensile testing at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/minute. The data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis analysis and multiple comparisons test. The control (Group VI) and Futura Bond NR self-etching treatment (Group IV) group yielded statistically significant higher bond strength values than the other desensitizing treatment groups tested (p < 0.005). While pretreatment of dentin surfaces with desensitizing agents (Fluor Protector, VivaSens and Isodan) and laser (Nd:YAG) reduced the bond strength values of the resin composite, higher bond strengths were achieved using a self-etching adhesive (Futura Bond NR) as a desensitizing agent.

This study evaluated the influence of the method and period of storage on the adhesive bond strength of indirect composite resin to bovine dentin. Ninety bovine incisors were stored in three different solutions: 0.2% thymol, 10% formalin, and 0.2% sodium azide, during 3 periods of storage: 7 days, 30 days and 6 months, resulting in 9 groups (n = 10). The roots were cut off and the buccal surface was ground with #600-grit silicon carbide paper. The surface was conditioned with 37% phosphoric acid for 15 s and a composite resin restoration (TPH Spectrum) was fixed using a one-bottle adhesive system (Adper Single Bond) and a dual-cured resinous cement (Rely X ARC) under a load of 500 g for 5 minutes. The samples were serially cut perpendicular to the bonded interface to obtain slices of 1.2 mm in thickness. Each slab was trimmed with a cylindrical diamond bur resulting in an hourglass shape with a cross-sectional area of approximately 1 mm(2). The microtensile bond strength (microTBS) testing was performed in a testing machine (EMIC 2000 DL) at a 0.5 mm/minute crosshead-speed until failure. After fracture, the specimens were examined under SEM to analyze the mode of fracture. muTBS Means were expressed in MPa and the data were analyzed by two-way ANOVA (3X3) and the Tukey test (alpha = 0.05). The storage times of 7 and 30 days produced no significant difference irrespective of the solution type. The formalin and thymol solutions, however, did have a negative influence on bond strength when the teeth were stored for 6 months.

To determine the shear bond strength of 10 self-etching adhesive systems to dentin and enamel, flat bonding sites were prepared on 216 extracted human molar teeth, using 600-grit silicon carbide paper to expose dentin or enamel. Following the application of each adhesive system, bonded assemblies of Spectrum TPH were prepared using a gelatin capsule matrix (n = 24). After 24 hours of storage in water at 37 degrees C, 12 specimens from each enamel and dentin group were debonded. This was followed by thermocycling for 6,000 cycles between water baths at 5 degrees C and 55 degrees C, with a dwell time of 20 seconds in each bath. Specimens were loaded to failure in a testing machine with a crosshead speed of 5 mm/minute. Statistical analysis included a one-way ANOVA and least square difference post hoc test. There were significant differences in shear bond strength for both enamel and dentin among the materials tested (p < 0.05).

This study examined the effect of different light activation modes for light-cured resin-based composites on the shear bond strength to dentin of two one-bottle adhesives with differing acidity. In this experimental study, a flat middle dentin surface was prepared on 110 extracted sound molars using a 600-grit polish paper. The teeth were then randomly divided into 10 equal groups (n = 11). One-Step Plus (OS) and Prime & Bond NT (P&B NT) were used according to the manufacturer's instruction with their respective composite (Aelite, Spectrum TPH) applied and cured using five different light-activation modes: 1. Conventional (CO): 600 mW/cm2 (40 seconds) 2. Soft-Start I (SSI): 100 mW/cm2 (10 seconds) 600 mW/cm2 (30 seconds) 3. Soft-Start II (SSII): 200 mW/cm2 (10 seconds), 600 mW/cm2 (30 seconds) 4. Pulse-Delay I (PDI): 100 mW/cm2 (3 seconds), 3-minute delay, 600 mW/cm2 (37 seconds) 5. Pulse-Delay II (PDII): 200 mW/cm2 (3 seconds), 3-minute delay, 600 mW/cm2 (37 seconds) After 24 hours storage in distilled water at room temperature, a shear bond strength (SBS) test was performed using an Instron machine at 1 mm/minute and the results were recorded in MPa. Statistical analysis included two-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD (p < 0.05). The highest SBS (MPa) was shown in the OS conventional group (19.62 +/- 2.21) and the lowest SBS was shown in P&B NT, PDII (5.93 +/- 1.79). In each group of five curing modes, the mean SBS for P&B NT was significantly lower than OS: conventional mode--P&B NT (17.27 +/- 1.98) vs OS (19.62 +/- 2.21); SSI-P&B NT (10.84 +/- 2.82) vs OS (13.09 +/- 1.24); SSII - P&B NT (14.78 +/- 1.63) vs OS (18.79 +/- 1.57); PDI-P&B NT (5.93 +/- 1.79) vs OS (11.97 +/- 2.59) and PDII-P&B NT (11.82 +/- 1.24) vs OS (16.00 +/- 1.62) (p < 0.001 for all comparisons). For each of the adhesives, the ranking of SBS was as follows: CO > SSII > PDII > SSI > PDI, with the two-paired comparisons of curing modes being significantly different (p < 0.05). The results of the current study indicated that the bond strength of P&B NT might be compromised by the higher acidity of this adhesive compared to OS during each curing mode, especially PDI. The conventional mode was least affected by the acidity of the adhesive.
