Abstract
Background and Aims: Failure of bonding between artificial teeth and denture base material is a considerable problem for patients who wear dentures. According to the different impact of artificial teeth and different information about resistance force of mastication and also with deficiency in researchs, this study was designed to compare the bond strength of composite and acrylic artificial teeth to auto-polymerized denture base resins with and without cyclic loading.
Materials and Methods: In this experimental and in vitro study, an acrylic resin auto-polymerized (Rapid Repair, Dentsply) and four artificial teeth (Acrylic Marjan new, Composite Glamour teeth and Ivoclar acrylic and composite teeth) were used. Therefore, 8 groups of 10 specimens each were evaluated. All specimens were thermocycled for 5000 cycles, in water baths between 5 and 55 ◦ C. Half the specimens in each group were treated with cyclic loading at 50N for 14, 400 cycles at 1.2 Hz. The shear bond strengths were measured using a Universal Testing Machine. Data were analyzed using Two-way ANOVA test.
Results: Statistical analysis demonstrated no significant effect of cyclic loading on the shear bond strength, but the type of artificial tooth affected the shear bond strength (P=0.006). Also, the interaction between Cyclic loading and the type of artificial tooth showed no significant difference (P=0.98). Tukey test showed that acrylic teeth (Ivoclar) had statistically higher bond strength values than that of other teeth (PGlamour=0.02), (PComposite ivoclar=0.01) and (PMarjan new=0.02).
Conclusion: Within the limitation of this study, the predominant type of fracture in all groups was cohesive, therefore the bond strength was adequate in all teeth and the type of artificial tooth may influence the bond strength of denture teeth to denture base resin. Cyclic loading had no significant effect on the bond strength of denture teeth to the auto-polymerized acrylic resin.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Today, use of adhesive systems is the most common materials in restorative dental procedures. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different air-drying periods on the microtensile bond strength of composite to dentin using adhesive.
Materials and Methods: 15 sound molar teeth were selected. The an occlusal surfaces of teeth were removed with silicon carbide disks (3M/USA) to reach flat surface of dentin. Then according to the air drying of solvent, the teeth were divided to five groups. After 5 sec etching and rinsing for 15 sec , the teeth were air dried for 3 sec . Then Singlebond (3M) was used with different air-drying times (0s, 2s, 5s, 10s, 30s) and cured. Then after insertion and curing of Saremco (microhybrid low shrinkage/Switzerland) composite, the teeth were thermocycled for 500 cycles. Then hour glass slabs with 1 mm2 interface was created. Specimens were then subjected to µTBS force until fracture. Data were analyzed using ANOVA and Bonferroni tests.
Results: Statistical tests showed that there were significant differences between bond strength of groups (P=0.002). The mean of µTBS for the 2 Sec and 30 Sec evaporating time was the most and the least vawes, respectively.
Conclusion: An optimum air-drying time for solvent evaporation was the lowest time recommended by the manufacturer. Over and under evaporation time decreased µTBS significantly.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Retention and stability of the post and core system is the key factor for success of final restoration . The aim of this study was to evaluate the microtensile bond strength of the different composite core materials and bonding systems to a fiber post.
Materials and Methods: To evaluate the bond strength of the composite resins to a fiber post ( DT light post) 60 posts were divided into six groups : group A: Heliomolar Flow + Seal Bond, group B: Heliomolar Flow + SE Bond , group C: Valux Plus + Seal Bond , group D: Valux Plus + SE Bond , group E: Corecem + Seal Bond, group F: Corecem + SE Bond. All samples were thermocycled for 5000 cycles (5-55 0C) and cut into four bars for the microtensile bond strength test. Failure modes were identified using a stereomicroscope. Data were analysed using One-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD post hoc test (P<0.05).
Results: The interaction between composite resin materials and bonding systems were positive. The conventional hybrid composite (Valux Plus) had significantly higher bond strength compared with the core specific flowable composite (Corecem) when Seal Bond was applied as bonding agent (P<0.05). However, when SE Bond was utilized hybrid composite demonstrated significantly lower bond strength than that of other two groups (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The performance of a particular composite is affected by the bonding system that is applied. A single composite resin may have different bond strength when combined with different bonding system.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Indirect composites are designed to overcome the shortcomings of direct composites such as polymerization shrinkage and low degree of conversion. But, good adhesion of resin cements to indirect composites is still difficult. This research was designed to assess the effect of different powers of ErYAG laser compared with sandblasting. On the micro tensil bond strength of resin cement to indirect composites.
Materials and Methods: Specimens were prepred using dental resin composite (Gradia GC) and metallic mold (15×5×5 mm) and were cured according to the manufacturer’s instructions. 24 blocks were prepared and randomly divided into 12 groups. G1:no treatment (as control), G 2-6: Er YAG laser irradiation (2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Watt), G7: sandblast. Two composite blocks were bonded to each other with Panavia F.2. resin cement. The cylindrical sections with dimensions of 1 mm were tested in a microtensile bond strength tester device using 0.5 mm/min speed until fracture points. Data were analyzed using 2-way ANOVA and T-test.
Results: Interaction between lasers irradiation and sandblast treatments were significant (P<0.05). Thus, T-test was used for comparing laser groups. T-test showed that when using laser with energies less than 150 mJ, there was no significant difference (P>0.05) whether samples were sandblasted or not. Samples which received 300 mJ of laser showed lower bond strength compared with no laser treatment. Other groups showed no significant difference (P>0.05).
Conclusion: It seems that application of sandblast with proper variables, is a good way to improve bond strength.
Laser application had no influence in improving the bond strength between the indirect composite and resin cement.

Abstract
Background and Aims : In this in vitro study, the long-term bond strength of a self-adhesive resin cement and conventional resin cements to human enamel and dentin was compared .
Materials and Methods: 80 sections of intact human third molars were randomly assigned into eight groups according to the cement type [Rely X Unicem (RXU), Rely X ARC (RXA)], bond substrate (enamel, dentin) and the duration of water storage (24 h or 1 year). Rods of cements (0.75×1 mm) were prepared on the top surface of specimens using Tygon tubes. The micro-shear bond strengths of specimens were measured by a micro-tensile tester. Data were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed ranks and Mann Whitney tests ( α =0.05).
Results: The bond strengths of RXA and RXU cements to enamel after 24h were 18.56±4.08 MPa and 14.99±4.17 MPa, and after 1 year were 19.41±6.24 MPa and 15.51±6.17 MPa, respectively. The bond strengths of RXA and RXU cements to dentin were 13.36±4.02 MPa and 14.16±4.69 MPa after 24h , and 14.63±5.96 MPa and 14.08±6.72 MPa after 1 year, respectively. Tooth substrate had significant effect only on the shear bond strength of RXA cement after 24h (P=0.01), while no other significant differences were found in this study (P>0.05).
Conclusion: According to the results of this study, one-step self-adhesive and multi-step conventional resin cements were similarly effective in bonding to enamel and dentin after 1 year water storage.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Debonding of denture teeth from the denture base can be frustrating for both clinician as well as patient. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of different tooth preparations on the tensile bond strength of composite denture teeth to acrylic denture base material.
Materials and Methods : In this experimental study, 108 anterior Glamour teeth were selected and divided into 9 groups, based on their preparation (physical: no physical change, glaze removal, creating two slots with 1.5 mm depth, creating a hole with 2.5mm depth, chemical: (without chemical materials, monomer, silane). Specimens were prepared and tested according to the methods of the International standards organization (ISO 20795-1). After attachment of teeth to acryl, the tensile bond stregth test was performed in a Universal Testing Machine (UTM) with a crosshead speed of 1mm/min and specimens were subjected to tensile force until failure. Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA, Tukey HSD and Two-way ANOVA.
Results: There were significant differences between the bond strength of tested groups (P=0.012). Based on Tukey test, there was a significant difference between monomer/without physical change group and without/without (P<0.001) and control group. No significant differences were found between the bond strengths of the other groups (P=0.17) . All specimens were debonded as cohesive failure.
Conclusion: Application of monomer on the ridge lap surface led to improve the tensile bond strength between glamour composite denture teeth and Iranian acrylic resin, however physical changes were not effective. According to the cohesive failure of all the specimens, it can be concluded that the bond strength between this type of teeth and acrylic resin was stronger than the strength of teeth.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Residual ridge resorption is an unpredictable, unavoidable and time-dependent process which occurs in denture-wearing patients especially those who use mandibular dentures. This process causes more problems in mandible because of its less support, tongue forces and more resorption. Inserting implants in many of these patients requires bone grafts. Overdentures are also more expensive. Denture adhesives are the last option to improve retention and masticatory function in denture-wearers with severe resorption of alveolar ridge. Nowadays only a few denture adhesives are used in Iran and there is not much information about their standard features including, pH, bond strength and washability. The objective of this study was to examine and compare the mentioned characteristics of four denture adhesives (Professional, Corega, Fittydent and Fixodent) and to introduce the most suitable denture adhesive for clinical use.
Materials and Methods: All the methodologies of ISO 10873:2010 were applied. To measure the pH value, 1±0.1g of each denture adhesive was diluted with 5g of propylene glycol and mixed with water. Using pH meter, pH of each group was measured separately for 4 times (n=4) and results were recorded. For the washability test, 4 dentures were fabricated (n=4) and each group of denture adhesives was placed on a denture according to manufacture instructions. For simulating mouth environment specimens were placed in water at 37±2 ̊C bath for 1 hour and then washed with a plastic brush. Specimens were examined for any residual adhesive and the results were recorded. For bond strength test, a sample holder was gently filled with denture adhesives and was attached to the holding arm of bond strength testing device (Santam, STM 20, Iran). Specimens were placed in 300ml water bath at 37±2 ̊C for 10 minutes, and then shaken to be dried and placed in the bond strength testing device. 10N force with 5mm/min rate was applied to the specimen. The force was maintained for 30s and then device arm was pulled back and the highest number was recorded with computer software (Santam Machine Controller v4.19, Iran). The test performed 8 times (n=8) for each adhesive and 8 results were recorded. Data were analyzed using ANOVA test for comparing the bond strength with a significant level fixed
at 0.05.
Results: Professional and Corega adhesives had more neutral pH than that of Fittydent and Fixodent which were more acidic. Washability test showed no remaining mass of any adhesive and there was not any statistically significant difference between groups (P>0.05). Fittydent and Corega adhesives showed higher bond strength than that of Professional and Fixodent and this difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).
Conclusion: Professional and Corega adhesives had less acidity. Thus they cause less harmful effects on the oral mucosa than that of Fittydent and Fixodent and should be indicated in patients with little-tolerant oral mucousa such as diabetous, iron-deficiency anemia and hypertention. All the groups had acceptable washability. Fittydent and Corega had higher bond strength than that of Professional and Fixodent. Therefore in complete-denture-wearers who require more retention as a result of severe ridge resorption, macrotruma, and maladaptiivity, Fittydent and Corega seems to be more acceptable.

Materials and Methods: In sixty extractedsingle canal and endodontic therapied roots, FRC Postec Plus were cemented with two resin cements, Nexus3 and Panavia F2.0, in three curing methods, immediate, 5, and 10 minute delay. After 24 hours storing in a dark place, they were cut into three sections: coronal, middle and apical. The push-out bond strength test was performed using the universal testing machine. Failure modes were evaluated using stereomicroscope. Data were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey post hoc test with P<0.05 as the level of significance.
Results: In Nexus3, the immediate light curing had significantly higher bond strength (11.18±4.32) than delay methods (P=0.001). In Panavia F2.0, the 5-minute delay had significantly the highest bond strength (13.34±4.62) (P<0.05). There was no correlation between the different light curing methods and root canal regions. In Nexus3, the coronal region had higher bond strength (11.83±3.7) than that of middle (9.12±3.1) (P=0.015), and middle than of apical (5.65±2.77) (P=0.00), and coronal than that of apical (P=0.002). In Panavia F2.0, there were not significant differences among regions (P>0.05).
Conclusion: Delay in light curing of dual-cure resin cement's had different effects on the push-out bond strength.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Today, resin composites are one of the most commonly used materials in restorative dentistry. However, failure in resin treatments is also common due to its chemical nature and its high talent for decay recurrence. According to conservative approaches, "conservative" treatments are more likely to be considered than "Replacement" of damaged remedies. The purpose of this study was to compare different surface preparation methods on composite surfaces to achieve the highest bond strength between the old and new composites after accelerated aging.
Materials and Methods: First, composite cylinders with a diameter of 6 and a height of 5 mm were prepared using an incremental technique and a microhybrid resin composite. The specimens were stored in distilled water for 6 months at 37°C and then the surfaces of all aged compsites were roughened using diamond milling followed by phosphoric acid etching. The specimens were randomly subjected into five groups. Group 1: GC Composite Primer. Group 2: Universal bonding containing silane (Kuraray). Group 3: Self etching adhesive (SE bond; Kuraray) Group 4: silane (Ivoclar Vivadent) + Second bottle of SE bond bonding system (Kuraray). Group 5: control group with no treatment. Then, 5 mm incremental of new composite (similar to the aged composite with different color) were placed on the surfaces of specimens, sectioned, and thermocycled for 3000 cycles for the microtensile bond strength evaluation. The specimens were evaluated using a stereomicroscope after failure. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA and Post Hoc Tukey test.
Results: The specimens in which silane and SE bond were used showed the highest mean microtensile bond strength and those treated by universal bond showed the least bond strength which were significantly different (P=0.02). All samples had cohesive failure patterns in all groups and the percentage of failures in old and new composites did not differ significantly (P=0.69).
Conclusion: : Based on the results, all surface preparations used in this study could provide an appropriate bond strength for repair of old composite restorations. Also, the microtensile bond strength between the old and new composites was higher than the cohesive strength of resin composite itself. However, the mean microtensile bond strength value for the group treated by universal bond was significantly lower than those treated by silane and hydrophobic containing bonding system.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Despite patient’s demand increased for tooth color restorations, the stable bond between dentin and composite is a challenge in dentistry. Dentin protease activation is responsible for dentin-resin bond failure. The aim of this study was to determine the best pretreatment agent to inhibit matrix metalloproteinase and increase resin-dentin bond durability.
Materials and Methods: After collecting 24 intact third molars, the dentin surfaces were exposed immediately under DEJ. After acid etching of dentin rewetting was done with CHX 2%, EDC 0.3 M for 60 and water (control group). Then the adhesive (Single bond, 3M ESPE, USA) and composite (Filtek Z250 XT, 3M ESPE, USA) were applied. 48 sectioned dentinal specimens were prepared. The specimens were divided into 3 groups. Each group was divided into 2 sub groups (n=8). In half of each group, the micro tensile bond strength test was done immediately and another part half 6 months. Then, the specimens were evaluated by stereomicroscope and SEM. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS23 software, two-way ANOVA and multiple Tukey and T-test comparisons. P<0.05 was considered as a significant level.
Results: There were not significant differences between immediate micro tensile bond strength of CHX, EDC and control groups (P=0.97). However, there was significant differences between CHX, EDC compared with the control group (P≤0.0001). Comparison between the immediate and 6-month bond strengths in each group, only in EDC group, there was no significant after 6 months’ difference (P=0.64).
Conclusion: EDC and CHX t did not have any effect on the immediate microtensile bond strength. After 6 months, EDC prevented bond strength deterioration, but the bond strength was decreased after CHX usage.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Restoration of non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) is challenging due to the difficulty of adhesion of dental tissues. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of three methods of surface treatments using diamond bur, Er: YAG laser and sandblasting on the microtensile bond strength of resin composite to the noncarious dentin in cervical lesions.
Materials and Methods: In this in vitro study, 48 canine and premolar extracted human teeth with NCCLs at the buccal surface were selected and randomly divided into 4 groups of twelve each: control group without any treatment, Er: YAG laser group, diamond bur group and sandblasting group. For all groups, the bonding agent used was Clearfil SE Bond and then the cavities were filled with
the Filtek Z250 resin-composite. After this step, the teeth were cut and then subjected to the microtensile bond strength test. Data were analyzed by the Kruskal Wallis test.
Results: According to the obtained results, the microtensile bond strength, from the highest to the lowest values were in the sandblast group (24.57±10.24 MPa), the diamond bur group (19.19±10.8 MPa), laser group (18.59±9.05 MPa) and the control group (18.56±9.27 MPa), respectively. Although, no statistically significant difference was found between any of the groups (P=0.266).
Conclusion: It seems that in teeth with NCCLs, the sandblasting method had a much better effect on the bond strength, although no statistically difference between surface treatment methods was found.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Recently, the addition of nanoparticles into the restorative materials and tooth preparation by laser for improving the bond strength have been concidered by researchers. The aim of this study was to investigate the shear bond strength of the bioactive glass ionomer containing titanium particles and a conventional glass ionomer with two surface treatments by Er-YAG laser and conventional methods.
Materials and Methods: In this in-vitro study, 64 sound extracted premolars were collected. For conventional method, the specimens were prepared in such a way that dentin surfaces with a depth of 0.5 millimeter created at distance of 2 mm from the joint of CEJ at the root or crown. In the laser group, after preparing the teeth, the surface area was prepared by Er-YAG laser. Then, in the middle part of the buccal surface, a cylindrical mold with dimensions of 3.5 mm in diameter and 4 mm in height was placed and for each group was filled with its own glass ionomers. The specimens were divided into 8 groups by simple random sampling (n=8): A (laser, conventional glass ionomer, coronal dentin)/ B (laser, glass ionomer containing titanium nanoparticle, coronal dentin)/C (conventional, conventional glass ionomer, coronal dentin)/ D (conventional, glass ionomer containing titanium nanoparticle, coronal dentin)/ E (laser, conventional glass ionomer, root dentin)/ F (laser, glass ionomer containing titanium nanoparticle, root dentin)/ G (conventional, conventional glass ionomer, root dentin)/ H (conventional, glass ionomer containing titanium nanoparticle, coronal dentin). Finally, the shear bong strength by a universal testing machine was measured at a cross-head speed of 1 mm/min. For data analysis, Two-way ANOVA test was used to evaluate the effect of each variable and their interaction on the shear bond strength and Tukey test was used to compare the two groups.
Results: There was significant difference only between groups B with C (P=0.002), E (P=0.007), G (P=0.001) and H (P=0.01). The highest bond strength was found for group B (laser, glass ionomer containing titanium nanoparticle, coronal dentin) and the lowest bond strength for group G (conventional, conventional glass ionomer, root dentin).
Conclusion: All three factors of Er-YAG laser, glass ionomer containing titanium nanoparticle and coronal dentin had a positive effect on the improvement of the bond strength.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Insufficient adhesion between fiber post and root canal is the main reason for the failure of the restoration and the fiber post surface treatment can imprive the bond strength. Additionally, there is disagreement about the ideal method of preparation to achieve the desired bond. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of two surface treatment methods on push-out bond strength of fiber posts to root canals.
Materials and Methods: In this study, 45 healthy incisor teeth underwent root canal treatment. After preparing the post space, they were divided into 3 groups of 15, based on the surface treatment methods of the fiber post. In the first group as control group, no surface treatment was done on the fiber post. In the second and third groups, sandblasting with Cojet sand particles and 810 nm diode laser were used for surface treatment, respectively. Then, fiber posts were placed in all root channels by a self-adhesive resin cement. Then, the roots were cut in such a way that from each, 3 pieces with a thickness of 1.5 mm were obtained. Finally, the push-out bond strengths were measured using a universal testing machine. Data were analyzed by ANOVA using SPSS software. The level of significance was considered at P<0.05.
Results: The average bond strengths in three groups were as follows: control group, 2.877 ±1.430, sandblast group 6.318±3.444, and laser 4.224 ±1.890 MPa ± SD. The difference in the bond strength between the sandblast group and the control group was significant (P=0.001). However, the average of the bond strength of laser group was not significantly different from the control group. (P=0.03).
Conclusion: The findings of this study showed that unlike diode laser radiation, the use of Cojet sand particles for sandblasting the fiber post surfaces significanlty improved the bond strength.

Abstract
Background and Aims: The bond strength of direct composite restoration to the caries affected dentin is a challenging issue. Preparation of dentin with an antibacterial agent is a method for creating durable bonded restorations. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of curcumin photosensitizer on the bond strength of a universal adhesive to the caries-affected dentin (CAD).
Materials and Methods: In this experimental in vitro study, forty-four decayed human molar teeth were selected. After removing the surface enamel and dentin by a water-cooled saw, the decayed mid-coronal dentin was stained with a caries detection solution. The green and soft infected dentin was removed and CAD and hard and healthy surrounding dentin were left. Then, the remaining dentin surfaces were treated by 600 grit silicon carbide papers and polished. The specimens were divided into two groups (n=22): dentin pretreatment group by curcumin and control with no dentin pretreatment group by curcumin. Each group was divided into two subgroups based on the method of application of All-Bond Universal adhesive (Bisco, USA) (etch and rinseand self-etching methods). After placing the Aelite All Purpose Body (Bisco, USA) composite, all specimens were placed in a universal testing machine for microshear bond strength (µSBS) test. The failure mode of the isolated surfaces was evaluated under a stereomicroscope. Two-way ANOVA analysis was used for statistical analysis.
Results: Based on the obtained results, intervention with the adhesive application method and surface pretreatment with curcumin had no significant effect on the bond strength. Also, there was no significant difference in the bond strength of the curcumin group in both etch and rinse and self-etching methods (SE=56.3±27.11 MPa; ER=52.4±84.11 MPa) (P=0.847). In the curcumin-free group, there was no significant difference between the two different adhesive application methods (P=0.187).
Conclusion: The results obtained in the present study showed that the pretreatment of dentin affected by caries with light-sensitive curcumin and also use of a universal adhesive by either self-etching or self-etchinf methodshad no influence on the microshear bond strength of the composite restoration.
