Abstract Objective To evaluate the effect of five experimental silane monomer primers in vitro on the shear bond strength of a phosphate ester resin-composite cement bonded to a silicatized zirconia…
Abstract Objectives To study hygroscopic dimensional changes in new resin-matrix composites during water sorption/desorption cycles. Methods Five materials were examined: a self-adhering flowable composite: Vertise ® Flow (VF), a universal…
Abstract Objectives The objective of this study was to evaluate composite methacrylate–thiol–ene formulations with varying thiol:ene stoichiometry relative to composite dimethacrylate control formulations. It was hypothesized that the methacrylate–thiol–ene systems…
Abstract Objectives To assess the dimensional stability of 8 impression materials over 12 weeks relevant to in vitro tribology studies. Methods Ten impressions from eight impression materials were taken of…
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the degradation of different resin filling materials after a caries challenge, by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and contact angle…
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to measure the effect of incorporating CPP–ACP into an autocure GIC on physical and mechanical properties, ion release and enamel demineralization inhibition….
Abstract Objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of three antioxidant/reducing agents with different application times on microtensile bond strengths to sodium hypochlorite-treated dentin. Methods The…
Abstract Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate, in vitro, the potential cytotoxicity of dentinal adhesives on alveolar macrophages of Wistar rats, after diffusion through dentin. Methods The…
Abstract Objectives The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of thermal oxidation on the corrosion behavior of Ti–5Ag alloy. Methods The microstructure of Ti–5Ag alloy without…
