Article Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the formation of acid-base resistant zone (ABRZ) of enamel surface during bracket bonding by using three self-etch adhesives presently available in the orthodontic treatment. Also, the relation between the thickness of the ABRZ and bonding strength, the relation between the thickness of the ABRZ and the concentration of fluoride ions contained in the adhesives, were discussed respectively. The ABRZ was formed with all self-etch orthodontic adhesives. ABRZ thicknesses of two self-etch adhesives were approximately 0.8-1.0 μm, whereas ABRZ thickness of other one was about 0.1 μm. The bond strengths of all self-etch orthodontic adhesives indicated over 10 MPa, and ABRZ thickness observed in the enamel surface seemed to have no influence to the bond strengths among self-etch adhesives. Moreover, the thickness of ABRZ appeared to be associated with the amount of fluoride ion released from the primer.

Objectives: to evaluate the effect of smear-layer deproteinization using papain gel and SPRG-adhesive on marginal-gap, anti-demineralization of enamel and dentin after chemical pH cycling and assess acid-base resistance zone (ABRZ) characteristics.
Methods: Cylindrical cavities were prepared cervically in thirty-two extracted premolars. Teeth were divided into two pretreatment groups (n=16); deproteinization with papain enzyme gel (Papacarie Due, Brazil) for 60 second, and no-deproteinization.

Despite advancements in bonding techniques, the resin-dentin interface remains the weakest point in dental restorations, susceptible to collagen degradation and methacrylate hydrolysis. One strategy to enhance the resin-dentin interface is to incorporate hydrogen-bonding-rich functional groups into dental adhesive resins, such as 2-ureido-4[1H]-pyrimidinone (UPy). These hydrogen bonds may bridge the adhesive resin and dentin substrate, which contains collagen and hydroxyapatite, as well as form non-covalent crosslinks within the resin.

The study evaluated the effects of postoperative bleaching with HP and CP on microtensile bond strength (μTBS) and nanoleakage of composite restorations using total-/self-etch protocols. Sixty incisors with Black V cavities were restored using a multimode adhesive in total-/self-etch mode and resin composite. Samples were divided into five groups: control, CP×2, CP×5, HP×2, HP×5.

Background: A major challenge in adhesive dentistry, often leading to restoration failure, is microleakage. This in vitro comparative study was designed to assess microleakage at the tooth-composite interface. The investigation aimed to compare the sealing efficacy of two commonly used adhesive systems.
