title: Effects of time after extraction and depth of dentin on resin dentin adhesives.
abstract: An adhesive shear test has proved to be reproducible and potentially usable for screening new systems. When evaluating current resin dentin adhesives, it appears that the length of time elapsed since extraction of the tooth has little effect on adhesion. Conversely, adhesion significantly decreases as the pulp is approached.
