Abstract The aim of this study is to evaluate the microtensile bond strength and the ultramorphology of the resin-tooth of the self-adhering flowable resin composite bonded to dentin compared to, two-step and one-step, self-etching adhesives with flowable resin composite bonded to dentin. Thirty intact human maxillary first premolars were prepared, the resin applied, and sectioned perpendicular to the adhesive interface to produce dentin–resin composite sticks, with an adhesive area of approximately 1 mm2.The sticks were subjected to tensile loading until failure occurred. Fifteen teeth were prepared also in the same way and sectioned to undergo ultramorphological analysis with ESEM. The results showed that there was no significant difference among the three adhesive systems The one-way ANOVA test was used to analyze and compare the data from the tested bonding systems. The Statistical analysis showed no significant difference between the two-step, one-step self-etching adhesives bonded to flowable resin composite and self-adhering flowable resin composite. There was no fixed strong correlation between the microtensile bond strength and the ultramorphological characterization. Within the limitations of this research, the following conclusions can be drawn. 1.The recent self-adhesive flowable resin composite can be regarded the restorative material of the future. 2.This material needs more extensive studying of the other mechanical properties beside the clinical evaluation. The chemical analysis of the resin-tooth interface is required beside the ultramorphology to understand their chemical profile widely. |
