Influence of adhesive systems on microtensile bond strength of resin-based endodontic sealers to the root dentin

subject

description

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the microtensile bond strength to root dentin of AH PlusTM and EndoREZ® with Clearfil Liner Bond 2V and Optibond SoloTM Plus adhesive systems. Study Design: The coronal and middle thirds of six single rooted bovine teeth was split longitudinally in a mesio- distal direction. The two halves were joined with AH Plus or EndoREZ, with and without the use of Clearfil Li - ner Bond 2V and Optibond SoloTM Plus adhesive systems. Build-ups were vertically sectioned into quadrangular (?1mmx1mm) compound bars and subjected to tensile tests at a constant crosshead speed (1 mm/min) until debon - ding. Results: Optibond ® Solo PlusTM in combination with AH PlusTM and EndoREZ ® showed the highest mean micro - tensile bond strength values, in both coronal and middle thirds. The lowest results were seen in the groups where no dentine adhesive was applied, and in those where the self-etching adhesive Clearfil Liner Bond 2V was used. Conclusion: The microtensile bond strength to root dentin of AH PlusTM and EndoREZ may be increased with the use of a total-etch adhesive.
