Degree of conversion and bond strength of resin-cements to feldspathic ceramic using different curing modes

J. appl. oral sci; 25 (1), 2017
Abstract Resin cements have led to great advances in dental ceramic restoration techniques because of their ability to bond to both dental structures and restorative materials. Objective The aim of this study was to assess the performance of resin cements when different curing modes are used, by evalua...

Is the bonding of self-adhesive cement sensitive to root region and curing mode?

J. appl. oral sci; 25 (1), 2017
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the influence of two curing techniques on the degree of conversion (DC) of resin cements and on bond strength (BS) of fiber posts in different regions of root dentin. Material and Methods Twenty single-rooted premolars were endodontically treated, and the post spaces w...

Deflection and Flexural Strength Effects on the Roughness of Aesthetic-Coated Orthodontic Wires

Braz. dent. j; 28 (1), 2017
Abstract The aim was to evaluate the flexural strength and the effects of deflection on the surface roughness of esthetic orthodontic wires. The sample consisted of 70 archwire 0.014-inch: polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE)-coated Nickel-Titanium (Niti) archwires (Titanol Cosmetic-TC, Flexy Super Elastic Esth...

Physicochemical Properties and Dentin Bond Strength of a Tricalcium Silicate-Based Retrograde Material
