Objective Since their introduction, calcium silicate cements have primarily found use as
endodontic sealers, due to long setting times. While similar in chemistry, recent variations …

Objective To reevaluate proven strengths and weakness of glass ionomer cements (GICs)
and to identify agreement versus conflicting evidence in previous reports regarding the …

Tensile strength tests of restorative resins bonded to dentin, and the resultant strengths of
interfaces between the two, exhibit wide variability. Many variables can affect test results …

Glass-ionomer cements (GICs) are regarded as aqueous gels made up of polyalkenoic acid
salts containing ion-leachable glass fillers. The consequence of water permeation across …

Background The aim of this study was to investigate the use of phosphoric acid as a surface
treatment compared to traditional conditioning agents to dentine bonded with resin‐modified …

Background: Little information is available regarding the bonding performance of adhesive
restorative materials to caries‐affected dentine after the use of Carisolv (r). The aim of this …

Objectives. The objective of this study was to report on a novel phenomenon that occurs
when resin-modified glass-ionomer cements (RMGICs) are bonded to moist human dentine …

The purpose of this study was to compare fluid flow rates across dentin surfaces treated with
four conditioners. The effect of conditioning on the micro‐shear bond strengths of glass …

Purpose:: The aim of this study was to evaluate the interfacial microgap with different
materials used for pulp protection. The null hypothesis tested was that the combination of …

Objectives To evaluate and compare the ion-releasing capability of three different restorative
systems at the restoration/tooth interface elemental analysis using energy-dispersive X-ray …
