At a time when amalgam is used widely, yet when the criteria for its use are still evolving, the incorporation of an element of adhesive bonding between the amalgam and the base material may come into greater prominence and aid the general move towards more conservative new or replacement cavity preparations. This study assessed the 24-hour tensile bond strength of amalgam (Dispersalloy) to a light-curing glass-ionomer liner/base (Vitrabond), using Scotchbond dual cure, uncured Vitrabond or Vitrabond liquid as intermediaries. Using the Weibull distribution function, it was found that uncured Vitrabond was a better intermediary than Scotchbond or Vitrabond liquid. The bond strengths obtained with uncured Vitrabond intermediary were of the same order as those which can be expected between a glass-ionomer cement and dentine. This suggests scope for developing techniques for bonding amalgam to parts of cavity preparations.

Forty molar and premolar teeth had non-retentive cavities prepared and restored with amalgam using (1) copal varnish (control), (2) a pin, (3) Amalgambond or (4) Panavia-Ex. The forces and energy required to dislodge the restorations were recorded and compared, and the mode of failure noted for each group. Although the pinned restorations required significantly higher loads to dislodge them, the mode of failure and energy required to dislodge the restorations in the Amalgambond and Panavia-Ex groups indicated that these types of restorations had significant advantages over pinned restorations, particularly where the pulp might be compromised. The film thickness of the retentive systems in these two groups, however, indicated a substantial operator or technique sensitivity.
The urge by manufacturers to develop new and better materials can often leave the dentist confused as to how they work. This article seeks to describe these materials simply and how they can best be made to work; it may also help practitioners to ask representatives leading questions when presented with the latest product.
In the first part of this study some physical properties of restorative materials, amalgam, glass-ionomer and composite resin were measured experimentally. In the second part a numerical study was carried out, for which the maxillary second premolar tooth was used. The tooth model was restored with composite resin and amalgam on glass-ionomer, which was used as the base material. The stress distribution investigated was the resultant of the stresses which come from the mastication force and those resulting from the contraction and expansion of restorative materials. All calculations were carried out using the finite element method and programs were written using FORTRAN 77. A load of 450 N, at an angle of 45 degrees to the longitudinal axis was applied on the occlusal margin of the tooth. The tooth was assumed isotropic, homogenous, elastic and unsymmetrical. The distribution of compressive, tensile and shear stresses were plotted for the whole tooth structure.
This in vitro study investigated the effect of use of three dentine bonding agents: Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Plus (3M Dental Products, St. Paul, Minnesota, U.S.A.), Syntac (Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein), Optibond Dual Cure (Kerr, Romulus, MI, U.S.A.) on microleakage and shear bond strength of a fissure sealant (Helioseal F, Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) bonded to either dry or wet (saliva contaminated) enamels of primary teeth. Newly extracted 112 non-carious primary teeth were sectioned and embedded in resin blocks. Eight groups were formed for each test. Each group consisted of 14 specimens. Group 1 and 2: fissure sealant was applied directly to etched enamel in dry and wet condition, respectively; Group 3 and 4: fissure sealant was applied onto etched and Scotch-bond Multi-Purpose Plus treated enamel in dry and wet condition, respectively; Group 5 and 6: fissure sealant was applied onto etched and Syntac treated enamel in dry and wet condition, respectively; Group 7 and 8: fissure sealant was applied onto etched and Optibond Dual Cure treated enamel in dry and wet condition, respectively. The results revealed that the use of an enamel-dentine bonding agent under fissure sealant increased the bond strength and decreased the microleakage. The use of enamel-dentine bonding agents under sealant in moisture contaminated conditions gave better results than applying sealant alone onto non-contaminated teeth. Finally, Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Plus yielded the best results for both tests.
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of resin liner on deproteinized substrate on marginal and internal adaptation of composite restorations. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Twenty-four recently extracted 3rd molars were selected. The crowns were sectioned in a mesio-distal direction, and the specimens were ground to expose a flat enamel area of at least 6 mm in diameter. Cavities were prepared on the central area of flattened surfaces. The specimens were randomly assigned into four groups (n = 12): SB - 1. Acid etch, 2. Single bond application (SB); NaOCl/SB - 1. acid etch, 2. 10% sodium hypochlorite solution application for 60 s (NaOCl), 3. SB; SB/PL - 1. acid etch, 2. SB, 3. protect liner F (PL); NaOCl/SB/PL - 1. acid etch, 2. NaOCl, 3. SB, 4. PL. All cavities were restored with Filtek Z250 and polished. The outer and internal margins were stained using Caries Detector (Kuraray), observed under the stereomicroscope, and transferred to a computer measurement program. The length of the gap was expressed as a percentage of the total length of the margins observed. Data (internal adaptation) were submitted to ANOVA and Tukey's test. RESULTS: There were no gaps at enamel outer margins in any specimen of any group. There was no statistically significant difference in internal adaptation between SB (18%) and NaOCl/SB (18%). NaOCl/SB/PL showed the worst internal adaptation (21%), with the higher percentage of internal gaps, statistically differing from SB/PL, which showed the best internal adaptation (12%). CONCLUSIONS: Resin liner can effectively enhance internal adaptation on demineralized dentin. However, on demineralized and deproteinized dentin it affects the internal adaptation of composite restorations negatively.
The aim of this study was to investigate the response of human pulp tissue to a dentin bonding agent, Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Plus (SMPP), in exposed class V cavities. Sixteen human premolar teeth were mechanically exposed. Ten pulps were capped with SMPP and six teeth were capped with Dycal. The cavities were filled with a composite. After 40 days, the teeth were extracted and processed for histologic evaluation. Of the 10 teeth capped with SMPP, eight showed moderate chronic inflammation, one was severely inflamed, and one pulp had no to slight inflammation. None of the teeth capped with SMPP showed dentin bridge formation. Of the six teeth capped with Dycal, three exhibited incomplete dentin bridges associated with no to slight inflammation, and three showed no to slight inflammation, without formation of dentin bridges. Direct capping with Dycal with subsequent sealing with SMPP may show favorable results in pulp tissue. SMPP may cause inflammatory changes when applied directly to exposed pulp tissue.
