Adhesion to dentin mediated by Gluma: effect of pretreatment with various amino acids.
Dentin surfaces were treated with various amino acids. The treatment caused an alteration of the dentin surface that influenced the tensile bond strength to a restorative resin obtained with the Gluma system. The bond strengths varied between 5.6 and 14.2 MPa. Among the amino acids tested, N-phenylglycine produced the strongest bonds.
