Influence of environmental conditions on dentin bond strengths of one-application adhesive systems.
Resin composites are considered susceptible to environmental conditions that might affect bond strength. This study investigated the influence of relative humidity and temperature on the dentin bond strength of newly developed one-application adhesive systems. Bonding systems employed in this study were five commercial one-application adhesive systems. Labial surfaces of bovine incisors were ground wet on 600-grit SiC paper. The teeth were transferred to a controlled temperature and humidity chamber and the specimens were prepared in six different environmental conditions, A) 25 +/- 0.5 degrees C, 50 +/- 5% RH, B) 25 +/- 0.5 degrees C, 80 +/- 5% RH, C) 25 +/- 0.5 degrees C, 95 +/- 5% RH, D) 37 +/- 0.5 degrees C, 50 +/- 5% RH, E) 37 +/- 0.5 degrees C, 80 +/- 5% RH, F) 37 +/- 0.5 degrees C, 95 +/- 5% RH. The dentin surfaces were treated according to each manufacturer's instructions. Resin composites of each bonding system were condensed into a mold and light irradiated. After storage in 37 degrees C water for 24 hours, 10 specimens per group were tested in a shear mode in a testing machine at a crosshead speed of 1.0 mm/minute. Statistical analysis was carried out with one-way ANOVA followed by Duncan's multiple range tests at a p-value of 0.05. The dentin bond strengths of one-application adhesive systems decreased with increasing RH. These data suggest that the relative high humidity in the oral environment needs consideration in developing clinical procedures for management of these one-application adhesive systems.
