title: The role of diffusible ionic species in the bonding of polycarboxylate cements to dentine: an in vitro study.
abstract: Treatment of freshly-cut dentine with fluoride ions or high concentrations of metal ions produced changes ranging from mineralization of tubule contents to precipitation of adherent surface layers. Combinations of these treatments with application of fluoridated and non-fluoridated polycarboxylate cements and glass ionomer cements produced both increases and reductions in bond strength which are explained by ionic diffusion at the interface prior to setting.
