title: In vitro cytotoxicity of six dentin bonding agents.
abstract: The cytotoxicity of six dentin bonding agents (Syntac, Solobond, Bond 1, Scotchbond 1, Heliobond and F-2000) was tested against an established cell line, L929. Under aseptic conditions 3, 5 and 10 microL dentin bonding agents were placed in the centre of Petri dishes. Each dish was covered with a 5-mL suspension of fibroblasts at a concentration of 40 000 cells mL(-1). The cultures were incubated at 37 degrees C and cytotoxicity was assessed by a quantitative technique at 24 and 72 h. All the dentin bonding agents were found to be cytotoxic. Scotchbond 1 and F-2000 showed the highest cytotoxicity followed by Solobond and Bond 1. Heliobond and Syntac were the least toxic materials.
