title: Principles and mechanisms of bonding with dentin adhesive materials.
abstract: This article reviews six dentin bonding agents with regard to composition of the individual components of each of the systems. Adhesion mechanisms are discussed relative to the chemical compounds mediating the bond. Adjunctly, inspection of the bonding sites between the different adhesives and human dentin by scanning electron microscopy elucidates the bonds formed as far as detail reproduction as an indicator for wetting ability or mechanical interlocking.
