Total etch--the rational dentin bonding protocol.

R L Bertolotti

    Journal of Esthetic Dentistry
    |January 1, 1991

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Phosphoric acid etching of dentin is reevaluated for modern dental adhesives. Current research supports "total etch," simultaneously treating dentin and enamel, as effective with many new resin systems.

    Area of Science:

    • Dental materials science
    • Adhesive dentistry

    Background:

    • Phosphoric acid etching is a standard dental procedure.
    • Evolving adhesive resin technology necessitates reevaluation of established protocols.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To critically reexamine phosphoric acid etching of dentin.
    • To assess the suitability of "total etch" protocols with contemporary adhesive resins.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of current research and clinical experience.
    • Analysis of adhesive resin development trends.

    Main Results:

    • Evidence suggests "total etch" is a rational approach.
    • Simultaneous etching of dentin and enamel is compatible with many modern adhesives.

    Conclusions:

    • The "total etch" strategy is supported by current scientific and clinical data.
    • This protocol is a viable option for clinicians using modern adhesive resin systems.
