This study evaluated the effect of ethanol-wet-bonding technique (EWBT) on dentin adhesive infiltration, by means of nanohardness, elastic modulus and nanoleakage, and its stability after 6-month. Forty bovine incisors ...

Objective: To evaluate, through the application of different dentin bonding systems, the influence of wetness on shear bond strength in enamel. Methods: This study evaluated three etch-and-rinse adhesive systems (Scotchbond ...

The aim of this study was to improve the bond strength resistance of polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) and urea-formaldehyde (UF) adhesives modified with nano-clay (montmorillonite) with a tropical species of wood known to exhibit ...

Objectives: This study tested the following null hypotheses: (1) there is no difference in resin-dentine bond strength when an experimental glutaraldehyde primer solution is added prior to bonding procedures and (2) there ...

Background. Reduced surface tension of liquids results in higher surface wetting ability and diffusivity by the substrate. Objectives. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of the Grander Technology in ...

Aim: This study evaluated the inluence of dentin wettability on the immediate and extended microtensile bond strength (mTBS) of a universal adhesive system used in the etch-and-rinse strategy. Methods: Twenty human third ...

Hydrophilic dentin adhesives are prone to water sorption that adversely affects the durability of resin-dentin bonds. This study examined the feasibility of bonding to dentin with hydrophobic resins via the adaptation of ...
