Background: The treatment of dentin before the use of self-adhesive cements is still a crucial point to achieve the best bond strength values. The objective of this study was to evaluate the bond strength between dentin and com - posite resin using different adhesion strategies with self-adhesive resin cement.
Material and Methods: Forty healthy third human molars were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 10): CA (con- trol); application of self-adhesive cement (Rely X U200, 3M ESPE), AD + CA: only application of conventional adhesive (Adper Single Bond 2, 3M ESPE) + self-adhesive cement, AC + AD + CA; conditioning with 37% phosphoric acid for 15 seconds + application of conventional adhesive + self-adhesive cement and AC + CA; con- ditioning with 37% phosphoric acid for 15s + self-adhesive cement. Blocks made of composite resin (Z250 XT, 3M ESPE) were cemented over dentin. The samples were stored for 24h in distilled water at 37ºC and then were sectioned on a metallographic cutter to obtain tooth picks with approximately 1.0 mm2 in cross section. A universal testing machine was used with a speed of 0.5 mm/min to test the microtensile bond strength,. The fracture patterns were classified as adhesive, cohesive and mixed failures. The data (MPa) were analyzed statistically by One-way ANOVA and Holm-Sidak test (α=5%).
Results: The AC + AD + CA and AC + CA groups had the highest averages, while the CA and AD + CA groups had the lowest bond strength values. Adhesive failure was prevalent in all groups.
Conclusions: Conditioning with 37% phosphoric acid for 15s increases the adhesion of the self-adhesive resin ce- ment to the dentin, regardless of the use of dental adhesive system.
