Shear bond strength and SEM morphology evaluation of different dental adhesives to enamel prepared with ER:YAG laser [PDF]

open access: yesContemporary Clinical Dentistry, 2013
Context: Early observations of enamel surfaces prepared by erbium lasers motivated clinicians to use laser as an alternative to chemical etching. Aims: Evaluate shear bond strength (SBS) values of different dental adhesives on Erbium:Yttrium Aluminum ...

Comparison of the Retention Rates of Pit and Fissure Sealants Placed on First Permanent Molars Treated with Air Abrasion and Acid Etching: A Split-mouth Randomised Clinical Trial [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2023
Introduction: Pit and fissure sealants are a reliable and safe method of occlusal caries prevention. Accurate preconditioning of the enamel surface is essential for long-term sealant retention.

Hydrofluoric acid etching of dental zirconia. Part 1: etching mechanism and surface characterization [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the European Ceramic Society, 2016
Rough surfaces have been shown to promote osseointegration, which is one of the keys for a successful dental implantation. Among the diverse treatments proposed to roughen zirconia, hydrofluoric acid (HF) etching appears to be a good candidate, however little is known about this process.

Surface Assessment of a Novel Acid-Etching Solution on CAD/CAM Dental Ceramics. [PDF]

open access: yesBiomimetics (Basel)
Background: This study investigated a new multi-acid-etching formulation for zirconia ceramics, containing hydrochloric, hydrofluoric, nitric, orthophosphoric, and sulfuric acids. The solution was tested on polycrystalline (5Y-TZP zirconia), lithium disilicate, hybrid ceramic, and feldspathic porcelain to assess compatibility, etching selectivity, and ...

Silane Heat Treatment Could Eliminate the Hydrofluoric Acid Etching of Lithium Disilicate Overlays: A Four-Year Follow-Up

open access: yesCase Reports in Dentistry, 2021
A four-year follow-up of a novel silane heat treatment method for bonding lithium disilicate overlays to tooth structures without hydrofluoric acid etching of the ceramic surface is presented in this case report. Silane heat treatment modifies the silane

Role of the smear layer in adhesive dentistry and the clinical applications to improve bonding performance

open access: yesJapanese Dental Science Review, 2022
Currently, dental adhesives can be divided into two systems; a smear layer-removal approach with etch-and-rinse adhesives or a smear layer-modified approach with self-etching adhesives. After phosphoric acid etching, the smear layer is completely removed.

A concise review of dental sealants in caries management

open access: yesFrontiers in Oral Health, 2023
This concise review provides an update of the use of dental sealants. Dental sealants protect a tooth from caries development by providing a physical barrier to microorganism colonisation and creating a favorable environment for patients to clean.
