Background:
The aim was to evaluate the effect of different irrigation protocols and antioxidants application on the shear bond strength (SBS) of two different adhesive systems to deep coronal dentin at different temperature.
Material And Methods:
One hundred and twenty human premolar teeth were cut longitudinally in two halves, then the prepared specimens were allocated into four main groups according to the irrigation protocols; Distilled water (control), Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) + Ethylenediamine Tetra-acetic Acid (EDTA), and NaOCl + Editronate (HEDP), two subgroups according to irrigation solutions temperature; 4°C and 37°C, two divisions according to grape seed extract (GSE) application (with and without), and two subdivisions according to the applied adhesive systems; OptiBond-All-In-One (OPT) and ScotchBond Universal (SBU). Adhesives were applied in self-etch (SE) mode and resin composite material discs were built. Specimens were kept in distilled water for 24-h at 37°C before SBS testing. Four-way ANOVA and Tukey HSD tests were used for data analysis (α=0.05).
Results:
4°C irrigants solution temperature showed the least significant SBS values, distilled water group showed significantly higher SBS values compared to NaOCl + EDTA and NaOCl + HEDP groups respectively. GSE application improved dentin bond strength significantly within each adhesive.
Conclusions:
Increasing the temperature of the irrigation solutions has significantly enhanced the SBS of coronal dentin. Antioxidants application following different irrigation protocols has improved the SBS. Key words:Irrigation protocols, temperature, bond strength, coronal dentin, antioxidant, adhesive systems.
