title: Dentin surface treatment and shear bond strength of a light-cured glass ionomer.
abstract: This study evaluated the effect of dentin surface treatment with polyacrylic acid on the shear bond strength of Fuji Lining LC light-cured glass ionomer lining cement (GIC). A total of 40 human, noncarious extracted permanent molars stored in distilled water were used. A flat buccal dentin surface was ground wet on 600-grit silicon carbide paper. The teeth were then randomly distributed into four groups of 10 teeth each: Group 1: dentin rinsed with distilled water, dried with oil-free compressed air, placement of cylindrical GIC samples and sheared at 15 minutes post-curing. Group 2: same as group 1, but sheared 7 days post-curing. Group 3: dentin treated with GC Conditioner for 10 seconds, rinsed with distilled water, dried with oil-free compressed air, placement of the GIC and sheared 15 minutes post-curing. Group 4: same as group 3, but sheared 7 days post-curing. The GIC was mixed in a 1:1 powder-liquid ratio. The samples were stored in distilled water until sheared with an Instron. The results revealed that dentin surface treatment with the polyacrylic acid significantly increased the shear bond strength to dentin when tested at 7 days post-curing.
