Bond strengths of resin-modified glass ionomers and polyacid-modified resin composites to dentin
1Department of Pediatric Dentistry, University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio 78284-7888, USA.
Purpose:
To measure the shear bond strength of two resin-modified glass ionomers (Vitremer and Fuji II LC) and two polyacid-modified resin composites (Compoglass and Dyract) when applied to dry dentin, dentin supplied with water pressure from the pulp, and after thermocycling.
Materials And Methods:
Ninety six extracted third molars were used. The root portion was removed just below the cemento-enamel junction and the occlusal enamel was removed from the crown segment. An artificial root portion was made in Plexiglas, cemented to the crown segment and connected to a 36 cm. height water column. The tested materials were applied to the surface of dry dentin, dentin supplied with water pressure from the pulp, and after thermocycling. Shear bond strength was measured for the bonded specimens using an Instron at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/minute.
Results:
There were no significant differences in bond strengths between Fuji II LC, Compoglass, and Dyract, which were significantly greater than that of Vitremer. The bond strengths of all materials were slightly increased or not affected by the presence of water pressure from the pulp. After thermocycling, the bond strengths of Fuji II LC, Compoglass, and Dyract were not significantly affected whereas those of Vitremer were significantly decreased.

In the absence of any leveling effect, the acid strength of binary compounds of hydrogen with nonmetals (A) increases as the H-A bond strength decreases down a group in the periodic table. For group 17, the order of increasing acidity is HF < HCl < HBr < HI. Likewise, for group 16, the order of increasing acid strength is H2O < H2S < H2Se < H2Te. Across a row in the periodic table, the acid strength of binary hydrogen compounds increases with increasing...
02:40Chemical Bonds
Atoms participate in a chemical bond formation to acquire a completed valence-shell electron configuration similar to that of the noble gas nearest to it in atomic number. Ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds are some of the important types of chemical bonds. Bond energy and bond length determine the strength of a chemical bond.
Types of Chemical Bonds
An ionic bond is formed due to electrostatic attraction between cations and anions. Often, the ions are formed by the transfer of electrons from...
