A comparison of the resin tag penetration of the total etch and the self-etch dentin bonding systems in the primary teeth: An in vitro study

Abstract

Background and Objective:Restoration of carious lesions with a strong permanent bond would be a highly desirable requisite. Ultra morphological characterization shows that observing and understanding the interfacial phenomenon and its quality would be of great importance in the selection of a dental adhesive for its use in pediatric restorative dentistry.Study design:Human primary molars, indicated for extraction, for reasons like caries, normal exfoliation, pathological root resorption, over-retained and serial extraction, were collected. Teeth were then equally distributed into 2 subgroups each namely B1 - Prime and Bond NT & B2 - Xeno III.Results:The resin tags seen in the samples of group B2 were both qualitatively and quantitatively advanced as compared to group B1. This reveals that the quality of the penetration of the resin was better in group B2.Conclusion:Reduction in the technique sensitivity of any bonding system would always be a preferred factor in pediatric restorative dentistry. Thus the inclination towards the selection of adhesive system may lean towards the self-etching bonding system at this juncture.

Effect of Immediat Dentin Sealing on the Bonding State of Hybrid Ceramic CAD/CAM Restorative Material to Dentin

“…Using filled DBA such as G-Premio Bond can be more useful for immediate dentin sealing than an unfilled DBA because of its capacity to provide a more stable resin coating [29]. Self-etching systems higher quantitative and qualitative function of penetration provide to reduce postoperative sensitivity more than total-etch or milder etching systems [30]. Another study has showed that universal adhesives show higher bonding efficiency than two-step self-etch adhesives [31].…”

Scanning electron microscope analysis of enamel microstructure in a Polycotylid (Plesiosauria) from the Pierre Shale Group, South Dakota, U.S.A.

“…Each tubule contains a rod-like structure ( Figure 8); the origin of these structures is still unclear; however, they may represent a nonmineralized material that had filled in the voids during the fossilization process. Mithiborwala et al (2012) reported similar structures where they are reported to be resin tags, remnants of the adhesive used to stabilize the fossil. Another possible that the rods represent the remnants of collagen structures that once filled the tubules, the acid etching process would have removed the surround hydroxyapatite minerals leaving the collagen to stick out above the surface.…”

Dentin hypersensitivity: Pre-hybridization as an alternative treatment

“…A study conducted by Mithiborwala et al 2013 [53] revealed a higher qualitative and quantitative capacity of penetration of the self-etching adhesive system than that of a conventional system. This fact would point out a tendency towards providing a smaller post-operative sensitivity [53].…”

“…It is important to emphasize that different self-etching systems display different characteristics and behaviors. Perdigão et al (2009) [53] highlighted the aggressive feature resulting from the pH differences therefore preferring the less acidic systems which are consequently less aggressive and with more adequate bonding characteristics [53]. Less acidic self-etching primers may help to reduce the hydrodynamic action through the dentinal tubules since these adhesive systems preserve the smear layer [53,[57][58][59].…”
