ABSTRACT


Aim: This Study Was Conducted To Study The Effect Of Curing Mode Of Acetone-based Vs. Solvent-free Self-etch Adhesive Systems On The Resin-dentin Bond Strength At Different Dentin Depth And Time Intervals.

Materials and Methods: A Total Of 120 Recently Extracted Caries-free Human Molars Were Selected. Three Adhesive Systems Were Tested In This Study; [Nano-Bond? Two-step Acetone Based Self-etch Adhesive (NB)], [Nano-Bond? Two-step Acetone Based Self-etch Adhesive + Nano-Bond? Dual Cure Activator (NB+DC)], And [Bond-1 SF Solvent Free One-step SE Adhesive (SF)]. Teeth Were Prepared Either To Expose Superficial Or Deep Dentin. The Prepared Dentin Specimens Received The Adhesive Systems Of Each Subgroup According To The Manufacturer?s Instructions. Resin Composite Was Build Up On Bounded Dentin Substrate. Restored Specimens Were Aged Either For 48h Or Three Months, Then Each Restored Tooth Was Sectioned Into Sticks Of (1 ? 0.05) Mm2 Thickness To Be Tested For Microtensile Bond Strength (?TBS) Using Universal Lloyd Testing Machine Travelling At A Cross-head Speed Of 0.5 Mm/minute Until Failure.

Results: Results Revealed That (SF) Group Recorded The Highest Statistically Significant (p<0.05) ?TBS Mean Value (23.93? 1.04 MPa) Followed By (NB+DC) Group (22.97? 1.71 MPa), While (NB) Group Recorded The Lowest Statistically Significant (p<0.05) ?TBS Mean Value (21.22? 0.43 MPa) As Indicated By Three-way ANOVA Test. There Was Non-significant (p>0.05) Differences Between (SF) And (NB+DC). Moreover; There Was No Significant (p>0.05) Differences Between (NB+DC) And (NB). There Was No Statistical Significant Effect For Either Dentin Depth Or Aging Periods On Resin-dentin Microtensile Bond Strength Of All Tested Adhesive.

Conclusions: Solvent Free Light Cure Dentin Adhesive May Constitute A Promising Adhesive Concerning The ?TBS Irrespective Of Either Dentin Depth Or Time Intervals. Adding A Dual Cure Activator To Acetone Base Dentin Adhesive May Had No Obvious Benefits On The Resin-dentin ?TBS Regardless Dentin Depth And Time Intervals.
