Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of dentin pretreatment with Dentin Conditioner,Ultra-Etch,conditioner of Fuji Plus cement on the shear bond strength of resin-reinforced glass ionomer cements to dentin and analyze the fractured surfaces. To evaluate the bond strengh, the extracted human teeth which had uniform area of exposed dentin were cemented with conventional glass ionomer cement. 3M RelyX TM Luting (Vitremer luting cement). Fuji Plus cement after dentin pretreatment. The shear bond strengh was measured using the Universal testing machine(Instron Co., USA) with a crosshead speed of 1mm/m. The effect of dentin pretreatment was evaluated by observing pretreated dentin surfaces under the scanning electron microscope,measuring the shear bond strength and observing the fractured surfaces under the scanning electron microscope. The results were as follows: On the SEM observation of surface morphology, the specimens treated with Dentin Conditioner, Ultra-Etch and conditioner of Fuji Plus cement were removed the smear layer and funneled dentinal tubules in dentin surfaces. In RelyX TM Luting cement group, shear bond strengh of pretreated group was significantly higher than control group. In Fuji Plus cement group and Fuji I group, regardless of the type of pretreatment agents, there was tendency of increase in the shear bond strength. On the SEM observation of fractured surfaces, as the shear bond strength increase, it were shown thicker cement layers and were not shown dentinal tubules. According to these results, it were shown that dentin pretreatment have much effect on bonding states.
