Increasing demand for simplified and user‐friendly adhesive systems has led to the
development of a new class of adhesives termed as Universal Adhesives (UAs). The term …

Numerous laboratory evaluations have been conducted since Dr. Rafael Bowen introduced
a method for determining the bond strengths of adhesive systems to dental substrates in …

Objectives To assess the performance of a universal adhesive in different application modes
in non-carious cervical lesions clinically and by optical coherence tomography (OCT) …

This aim of this study was to compare universal adhesives and two‐step self‐etch adhesives
in terms of dentin bond fatigue durability in self‐etch mode. Three universal adhesives …

This review aims to evaluate whether the etch-and-rinse or self-etch mode is the better
protocol for dentin adhesion by universal adhesives. A total of 15 articles were included in …

Purpose: To evaluate the microtensile bond strength (µTBS) and nanoleakage (NL) of
several universal adhesives to eroded dentin (ED), using etch-and-rinse (ER) or self-etch …

Objectives: To measure the 'immediate'and 6-month 'aged'micro-tensile bond strength
(μTBS) of universal adhesives with or without an additional adhesive layer applied on a …

Objectives To evaluate the biaxial flexural strength (BFS), flexural modulus (BFM), and
Knoop microhardness (KHN) of incremental and bulk-filled resin-based composites (RBCs) …

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the bonding performance of a universal adhesive
used according to self-etching or etch-and-rinse protocols in noncarious cervical lesions …

Optimal strategies for the application of an adhesive differ between enamel and dentin
because of the differences in their composition. The development of adhesive systems has …
