To evaluate bonding to dentin contaminated with primers/etchants used for adjacent ceramic repair.

To evaluate the effects of dentin pre-treatment with an ammonia- and water-based 2-step silver-containing solutions on the microtensile bond strength (µTBS), chemo-morphological characterization (SEM/EDS), and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) activity of a universal adhesive after 2 years of artificial aging.

The popularity of Biodentine (Septodont) use for vital pulp therapies requires verifying its bonding ability to other restorative materials. The null hypotheses were that different restorative materials and adhesive strategies did not influence shear bond strength (SBS) to Biodentine, nor its setting time.

To evaluate the influence of functional monomer type and powder-to-liquid ratio on the interfacial properties and degree of conversion of experimental self-adhesive flowable resin composites (SAFRCs) bonded to dentin.

This comprehensive literature-based review critically examines the physico-chemical properties of functional monomers present in contemporary dental adhesive formulations or dental materials relying on self-adhesive technology. A qualitative synthesis of evidence was conducted through searches in PubMed, Scopus, and LILACS over a 20-year period (2005-2025), without language restrictions. Data on the chemical structure, composition, adhesive performance, pKa, etching efficacy, polymerization, mechanical properties, toxicity, and hydrolytic stability/degradation were analyzed from peer-reviewed studies and manufacturer technical information. Several relevant acidic functional monomers are covered, but key players include 10-MDP, GPDM, and 4-META. Notably, 10-MDP emerged as the most prevalent monomer in commercial adhesives, appearing in nearly 50% of the current adhesives in the market. Its superior adhesive performance and longevity stem from its unique chemical characteristics, whereas other commercial acidic monomers, including GPDM and 4-META, are still present in many adhesive formulations despite their structural limitations and comparatively lower bonding efficacy. Understanding the chemical composition of dental adhesives is essential for achieving improved clinical outcomes and driving material development. This knowledge allows clinicians to select adhesive materials based on performance requirements and informs future innovations to address challenges such as degradation pathways, biocompatibility, and their overall long-term bonding efficacy.

This randomized clinical trial (RCT) aims to evaluate the clinical performance of the two powder-liquid restoratives Cention Forte ('CF'; Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Schaan, Liechtenstein) and Equia Forte HT ('EF'; GC, Tokyo, Japan) in class-I/II restorations. Here, the early 6-month clinical performance is reported.

Several adhesion strategies have been proposed for restoring non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs). Long-term clinical trials are essential to guide clinicians toward the most effective approach.

The goal of this study was to determine the survival rate, success rate, and periodontal health quality (PHQ) of glass fiber-reinforced composite (FRC) resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses (RBFDPs) over an observation period of up to 22 years.

Orthodontic treatment often requires anatomical tooth reconstruction for esthetic and functional reasons. Direct resin composite (RC) restorations, which preserve tooth structure while providing high bond strength, are widely used. Recently, orthodontic treatment plans increasingly incorporate RC restorations for correction of tooth form. This report presents a case in which RC injection, aided by a digital workflow, successfully restored lost canine morphology.

Evaluation of radicular bond strength and dentinal matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) activity with different endodontic sealers (traditional vs bioceramic), filling techniques (warm vs cold), and adhesive protocols (self-etch vs etch-and-rinse), after 24 hours and after one year (T0 vs T1).

To investigate, via questionnaire, how protocols for adhesive luting workflows of dental restorations are applied in three German-speaking countries.

To evaluate the effect of a self-etching primer on the long-term bond strength stability between a leucite-based glass-ceramic and resin cement, compared to the conventional treatment involving hydrofluoric acid (HF) etching followed by silane application.

The aim of this in-vitro study was to evaluate the effect of different indirect pulp capping (IPC) materials on bond strength to surrounding dentin.

This study aims to develop and characterize copper-doped bioactive glass nanoparticles (BG/CuNp), and to evaluate the effects of their addition into a resin composite on antimicrobial activity (AMA), cytotoxicity (CTX), ultimate tensile strength (UTS), Knoop microhardness (KHN), as well as immediate resin-dentin microtensile bond strength (μTBS), nanoleakage (NL) and in-situ degree of conversion (DC).
