Abstract

Abstract: Objectives: This study aims to determine dentin bonding durability of universal adhesives using shear bond strength (SBS) tests under various degradation conditions. Methods: G-Premio Bond (GP, GC), Scotchbond Universal (SU, 3 M ESPE) and All Bond Universal (AB, Bisco) were compared with conventional two-step self-etch adhesive Clearfil SE Bond (SE, Kuraray Noritake Dental). Bonded specimens were divided into three groups of ten, and SBSs with bovine dentin were determined after the following treatments: 1) Storage in distilled water at 37 °C for 24 h followed by 3000, 10, 000, 20, 000 or 30, 000 thermal cycles (TC group), 2) Storage in distilled water at 37 °C for 3 months, 6 months or 1 year (water storage, WS group) and 3) Storage in distilled water at 37 °C for 24 h (control). Results: SE bonded specimens showed significantly higher SBSs than universal adhesives, regardless of TC or storage periods, although AB specimens showed significantly increased SBSs after 30, 000 thermal cycles. In comparisons of universal adhesives under control and degradation conditions, SBS was only reduced in SU after 1 year of WS. Conclusion: Following exposure of various adhesive systems to degradation conditions of thermal cycling and long term storage, SBS values of adhesive systems varied primarily with degradation period. Clinical significance: Although universal adhesives have lower SBSs than the two-step self-etch adhesive SE, the present data indicate that the dentin bonding durability of universal adhesives in self-etch mode is sufficient for clinical use.
