Adhesive systems are resin-based materials that reach their final mechanical properties
through a polymerization process. Previous literature correlated the failure of the adhesive …

OBJECTIVE: Most of current dental adhesive systems show favorable immediate results in
terms of retention and sealing of bonded interface, thereby counteracting polymerization …

Objective Multi-mode universal adhesives offer clinicians the choice of using the etch-and-
rinse technique, selective enamel etch technique or self-etch technique to bond to tooth …

One of the recent trends in endodontics has been the development of bonded obturating
materials, in an effort to provide a more effective seal coronally and apically. Materials …

The aim of this study was to analyse the extent of polymerization of different adhesive films
in relation to their permeability. One adhesive of each class was investigated: OptiBond FL; …

Resin cement diffusion into dentin may differ as a function of the pre-treatment regimen.
Since self-adhesive cements do not require substrate pre-treatment for luting, penetration of …

Purpose The immediate application of a dentin-bonding agent after tooth preparation and
before impression-taking (immediate dentin sealing [IDS]) has been suggested to provide …

The interfacial strength and ultrastructure of a total-etch, self-etch and self-adhesive resin
cement used to lute endodontic glass fiber posts (FRC Postec, Ivoclar-Vivadent) was …

OBJECTIVES: Dentin bonds made with one-bottle etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesives
are affected by the formation of interfacial blisters, porosities and deterioration. The first …

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the longevity of resin–dentin bonds of three adhesives using
different storage media and specimen size. METHODS: Flat dentin surfaces from extracted …
