Objectives : We have recently reported the processing and physico-chemical characterization of a yttria-tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) ceramic produced via coprecipitation with mechanical properties comparable to commercially reinforced ceramic materials….
Objectives : This study evaluated the effect of the Ti condition (as-received and re-cast) on the mechanical properties, microstructure and fractography. Materials and methods : Castings ( n = 6)…
Veneer cracking on zirconia core dental material is presenting as a clinical concern. There is no standard method for calculating the magnitude of residual stress that causes these crack patterns….
Objectives : The aim of this study was to evaluate, using finite element analysis, the risk of debonding at the post/resin cement interface and root fracture in teeth restored with…
Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of wet bonding and colloidal platinum nanoparticles (CPN, Apt, LTD) on the dentin bond strength of one-step bonding…
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) bound to dentin have been thought to contribute to the progressive degradation of collagen fibrils in hybrid layers. Inhibition of host-derived MMPs may slow the degradation over…
Objectives : The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of different levels of nanoparticles, dispersed in an commercial, unfilled adhesive, on the adhesive strength to dentin. The…
Objectives : To evaluate the tensile bond strength (TBS) of resin cements to bovine dentin resin-coated with all-in-one adhesive systems. Materials and methods : Each of the dual-cure resin cements;…
Objectives : This study investigated the bonding efficacy of Adper™ Easy Bond (EB, 3 M ESPE), a 7th generation adhesive, when used in total-etch (5th generation) mode on either moist…
Objectives : This study was performed to investigate the compatibility between 4 dentin adhesives and 4 resin luting cements by means of uTBS test and SEM analysis for dentin–resin interface….
Objectives : The aim of this study was to evaluate the microtensile bond strength of some current adhesive systems on root surface dentin after 24 h of storage in distilled…
Objectives : This study investigated the effects of various human saliva contamination and decontamination protocols on the shear bond strengths (SBS) of three adhesives on bovine superficial dentin. Materials and…
Objectives : To evaluate the fatigue resistance of adhesives bonded to dentin, in comparison to their micro-tensile bond strength (μTBS). Materials and methods : The bonding effectiveness of three adhesives…
Objectives : In this study the addition of polymerization promoters to experimental self-etching primers on the bond stability of two-step adhesives to dentin was investigated. Materials and methods : A…
Objectives : Degradation of hybrid layers (HL) within resin-infiltrated dentin has shown to result from multiple degradation factors, including the collagenolytic activity of specific matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Inhibition of host-derived…
Objectives : Both adhesive and collagen degradation have been regarded as major causes of resin–dentin bonds failures. Complete infiltration of hydrophobic resins facilitated by ethanol, and the presence of MMPs…
Objective : RMGIs have been recognized as self-adhesive materials with long-term clinical adhesion even though their measured bond strengths are low. The objective of this paper was to study the…
Objectives : To evaluate the morphology of the hybrid layer of one total etch and one self-etch DBA alter water storage and the effect of the application of 2% clorhexidine…
Objectives . The purpose of this study was to compare the ability of two adhesion test methods to differentiate performance of three dental adhesives on uncut enamel. Materials and methods…
Objectives . To evaluate the bond strength of etch-and-rinse adhesives in different solvent evaporation conditions. Materials and methods . Flat dentin surfaces from thirty extracted human third molars were bonded…
