title: Effect of NaOCl on bond strengths of bonding agents to pulp chamber lateral walls.
abstract: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of 5% NaOCl on bond strengths of four bonding systems-Clearfil SE Bond, Prompt L-Pop, Prime&Bond NT, and Scotchbond Multi Purpose Plus-to pulp chamber mesial walls. Forty mandibular third molar teeth were used in the study. The pulp chambers of the first 20 teeth were restored with bonding agents and composite resins after 5% NaOCl irrigation, and the remaining teeth were restored without 5% NaOCl treatment. Each bonding group had five teeth. Three rectangular thin sticks (1+/-0.03 mm) were obtained from the mesial wall of restored pulp chambers by horizontal sectioning. In general, NaOCl application decreased the bond strength values of the bonding agents. Both Clearfil SE Bond and Prompt L-Pop without NaOCL showed higher bond strength values than the other bonding groups. In NaOCl-applied groups, Clearfil SE Bond had the highest bond strength. It can be concluded that self-etching bonding systems are more successful than the other systems in bonding to pulp chamber dentinal wall and that NaOCl reduces bond strength.
