Abstract
This study examined the relationship between delay in composite placement over cured adhesives and the dentin bond strength of several single-application self-etch adhesive systems. The adhesive system/resin composite combinations used were: Adper Prompt L-Pop/Filtek Z250 (AP), AQ Bond Plus/Metafil C (AQ), Fluoro Bond Shake One/Beautifil (FB), G-Bond/Solare (GB), One-Up Bond F Plus/Palfique Estelite (OF), Xeno IICF Bond/Xeno CF (XE). Bovine mandibular incisors were mounted in self-curing resin and wet ground with #600 SiC to expose labial dentin. The adhesives were applied according to each manufacturer's instructions, and resin pastes were condensed into a mold (ø4x2 mm) immediately, and 1, 2, 5 and 10 minutes after light irradiation of the adhesives. Ten samples per test group were stored in 37 degrees C water for 24 hours, then shear tested at a crosshead speed of 1.0 mm/minute. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's HSD test (alpha = 0.05) was done. SEM observations of the dentin surface after the tests were also conducted. Dentin bond strength ranged from 9.5 +/- 2.2 to 14.0 +/- 2.4 MPa for AP, 7.3 +/- 2.2 to 12.2 +/- 3.1 MPa for AQ, 10.0 +/- 3.5 to 16.3 +/- 2.4 MPa for FB, 11.4 +/- 1.5 to 16.3 +/- 1.2 MPa for GB, 14.2 +/- 3.4 to 15.1 +/- 3.0 MPa for OF and 11.5 +/- 2.4 to 15.9 +/- 2.2 MPa for XE. Except for OF, no significant differences were found among the 2 to 10 minute delayed placement groups for the systems used. Significant lower bond strengths were obtained for the immediate placement groups except for OF. From SEM observations, cohesive failure of the dentin surface was more pronounced with the longer delay in placement. The data suggest that delayed composite placement over the cured adhesives are suggested for optimum dentin bond strength of single-application self-etch adhesive systems.
