Cavity adaptation of resin composite in canine cavity in vivo.
The efficacy of four commercial and two experimental dentin bonding systems was examined by observing the cavity adaptation of commercial light-cured resin composites restored in the dogs scheduled to be sacrificed after a medical experiment. Before being sacrificed, a cylindrical class V cavity was prepared in each canine, and the cavity wall was treated with one of four commercial dentin bonding systems according to the manufacturers instructions followed by resin composite filling. The maximum contraction gap widths at the occlusal, gingival and axial cavity wall were measured on the cavity section 30 min after the polymerization of the resin composite under a light microscope. Contraction gap formation was completely prevented in only one of the experimental groups in which the cavity wall was primed with 35 vol% glyceryl mono-methacrylate (GM). In addition, observation of cavity adaptation in the canine in vivo was useful to estimate consistently the efficacy of the bonding systems.
