    Study Notes

    Adhesion of Resins to Dentin

    • Etch-and-Rinse Bonding Systems:
      • Three-Step Systems (E+P+B):
        • Etchant (E): Removes smear layer, exposes collagen, opens tubules.
        • Primer (P): Contains hydrophilic and hydrophobic molecules, envelops collagen, re-establishes surface free energy.
        • Bonding Agent (B): Contains hydrophobic monomers, co-polymerizes with primer, forms hybrid layer, penetrates tubules.
        • Examples: Scotch Bond MultiPurpose (3M), All Bond2 (bisco), Panavia 21
    • Advantages of Three-Step Systems: High bond strength, good control of moisture.
    • Disadvantages of Three-Step Systems: More complicated technique, potential for over-wetting or over-drying.
    • Two-Step Systems (E+[PB]):
      • Simplifies the bonding procedure by combining primer and bonding agent.
      • Examples: One-Step Plus (Bisco), Prime & Bond NT (DENTSPLY Caulk), Adper Single Bond Plus (3M ESPE), OptiBond SOLO Plus

    Moist Bonding

    • Moist dentin is critical for enamel bonding.
    • Removing excess water is crucial:
      • Damp cotton pellet
      • High-volume suction
      • Disposable brush
      • Laboratory tissue paper
    • Over-drying causes:
      • Collagen collapse
      • Reduced bonding efficiency

    Self-Etching Adhesives

    • Non-rinsing conditioners or self-priming etchants.
    • Types:
      • Two-Step (2 bottle): Contains a separate etching and bonding agent.
      • One-Step (1 bottle) or All-in-One: Combines all components in one bottle.
    • Advantages:
      • Simpler technique
      • Reduced moisture sensitivity
      • Less postoperative sensitivity (due to less complete smear layer removal).
    • Disadvantages:
      • Potential for fluid droplets on the adhesive surface
      • Less reliable adhesion for certain enamel preparations

    One-Step Self-Etch Systems

    • Advantages:
      • Convenience
    • Disadvantages:
      • Potential for fluid droplets on the adhesive surface
      • Less reliable adhesion for certain enamel preparations

    Universal Adhesives

    • Bond to various substrates including dentin, indirect ceramics, and resin-based restorations.
    • Typically mild or ultra-mild one-step self-etching adhesives.
    • Selective enamel etching is required.

    Case Discussions

    • Class II Restoration (Tooth # 16): A two-step etch-and-rinse or a two-step self-etch adhesive would be suitable, depending on the specific product and manufacturer guidelines.
    • Restoring Tooth # 11: A universal one-step self-etch adhesive would be suitable due to its ability to bond to both enamel and dentin.
    • Choosing a bonding system should be based on:
      • Cavity preparation
      • Dentin characteristics
      • Manufacturer recommendations
