Abstract
Introduction: This study was performed to compare the effect of Fractional CO2 laser or Q switched Nd:YAG laser of surface treatment on the shear bond strength of zirconia-porcelain interface. Methods: Fractional CO2 laser at 30 W, 2 ms, time interval 1 ms, distance between spots 0.3 mm, and number of scans is (4) or Q switched Nd:YAG laser at 30 J/mm2 and 10 Hz were used to assess the shear bond strength of zirconia to porcelain. Pre-sintered zirconia specimens were divided into three groups (n = 10) according to the surface treatment technique used: (a) untreated (Control) group; (b) CO2 group; (c) Nd:YAG group. All samples were then sintered and veneered with porcelain according to the manufacturer's instructions. Surface morphology was examined using a light microscope, the surface roughness test was done by the atomic force microscope (AFM), and the shear bond strength (SBS) test was done by a universal testing machine. After debonding following shear bond test, zirconia surfaces were examined under a light microscope to determine their fracture mode. Results: The Results of this study showed that the lowest SBS was recorded in the control group, and the highest SBS recorded in the Fractional CO2 group, followed by the Q switched Nd:YAG laser group, as well as an increase in surface roughness and change in the morphology and mode of failure in the experimental groups. Conclusion: This study shows that Fractional CO2 laser and Q switched Nd:YAG laser treatments significantly increase the bond strength than untreated zirconia.

Abstract
Introduction: Erbium laser ablation as a method of tooth preparation and conditioning has shown promising results. Although previous studies have adopted various combinations of different laser parameters and several dentin adhesive systems, very few have investigated combining high-level and low-level ER:YAG lasers with Universal adhesives. This study aimed to assess the impact of using low-energy irradiation on the surface micro-topography and shear bond strength (SBS) of universal adhesive (UA) to the erbium:yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Er:YAG) laser-ablated dentin substrate, bonded in etch-and-rinse or self-etch adhesive mode. Methods: Eighty-seven extracted molars were sectioned to expose flat occlusal dentin surface; 60 teeth were divided equally into three groups according to the surface treatment; bur-cutting (B), Er:YAG high-energy laser cutting (L1 - 200 mJ, 20 Hz, 50 μs pulse), or L1 followed by low-energy laser modification (L1 /L2 - 80 mJ, 10 Hz, 50 μs pulse). Then each group was equally divided into two groups (n=10) according to the mode of application of the universal adhesive; either etch-and-rinse (ER) or self-etching (SE). The samples were subjected to thermocycling (5000 cycle between 5°C and 55°C), and SBS was tested. Two-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc test were used to analyze the results. The remaining 27 samples were used to investigate the effect of the treatment on the topography of the treated dentin surfaces using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Results: B/SE recorded the highest SBS (25.48 ± 2.6 MPa) followed by B/ER (23.20 ± 6.8 MPa) and L1 /L2 /SE (22.94 ± 4.1 MPa) and with no statistically significant difference between these groups (P >0.05). The lowest SBS results (P <0.05) were recorded for L1/SE (12.22 ± 3 MPa). No statistical differences were found between the SBS of L1 /L2 /ER and L1 /ER groups or between the SBS of L1 /L2 / ER and L1 /L2 /SE groups. Conclusion: A subsequent treatment of the Er:YAG laser-ablated dentin with low-energy laser modification mode (LMM) enhances the SBS of the tested UA when applied in SE mode.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the proportion of microleakage (PM), shear bond strength (SBS), and the fissure sealant (FS) interface by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in three kinds of FS when the enamel surfaces were contaminated with saliva. METHODS 198 sound third molar teeth were randomly divided into three pretreatment condition groups (n = 66): dry, saliva contamination removed by cotton pellet, or saliva removed by air-drying. A resin-based FS (Clinpro™), amorphous calcium phosphate-containing FS (Aegis®), or glass ionomer-based FS (Fuji Triage®) was applied on the treated enamel, and PM and SBS were assessed. Two specimens from each group were observed with SEM. p values < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Glass ionomer-based FS showed the highest PM in all three surface conditions (p values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant). No significant difference in PM was observed between resin-based FS and amorphous calcium phosphate-containing FS (p > 0.05). Resin-based FS showed significantly greater SBS in all three surface conditions compared to glass ionomer-based FS. SEM observations showed that saliva contamination led to gaps at the enamel-sealant interface. CONCLUSION Neither cotton pellet-drying nor air-drying effectively removed saliva from the contaminated enamel surface. Glass ionomer-based FS showed the highest PM and the lowest SBS in contaminated and noncontaminated conditions. The highest SBS was obtained with resin-based FS.

Abstract
This study aimed to analyze different methodologies (tensile, microtensile, shear, microshear, and interfacial toughness) for evaluation of the bond strength between zirconia (Y-TZP) and resin cement. Zirconia ceramic blocks (VITA in-Ceram® YZ, VITA Zahnfabrik, Germany) were obtained, substrate surfaces were air-abraded with aluminum oxide (50 μm) for 10 s (2 bar pressure, distance: 10 mm, angle: 90°). Then, the specimens were washed with distilled water, dried, and coated with Clearfil Ceramic Primer that was actively applied with a microbrush for 20 s. The specimens were then cemented with resin cement under a load of 750 g, followed by photo-polymerization (40 s on each surface). After cementation, the specimens were aged in thermocycling (8000 cycles, 5-55 °C, 30 s for each bath) and subjected to tensile, microtensile, shear, microshear or interfacial toughness tests. All specimens were inspected for failure modes. The microtensile test showed the highest bond value (18.29 N/mm2). The microshear tests showed the highest coefficient of variation (0.59) and highest number of pre-test failures. The interfacial energy to fracture test showed that as the shear stress increased its interaction in the adhesive interface, the coefficient of variation also increased. The bond strength of Y-TZP showed different results according to the methodology, as well as its interfacial energy to fracture varied according to the angulation/type of stress specimen was submitted. The lower the shear stress at the adhesive interface of the mixed tests (interfacial energy to fracture), the lower was the variability of the test.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES 45S5 Bioglass is a bioactive glass capable of releasing ions that can interact with dental hard tissues. The current study aimed at examining the effectiveness of 45S5 Bioglass in remineralizing enamel white spot lesion (WSL) as well as its effect on the bond strength of orthodontic brackets bonded to demineralized enamel. MATERIALS AND METHODS WSLs were induced in the buccal surfaces of 135 human extracted teeth by storage in acid solution pH 4.5 for four days. The specimens were then equally divided into three groups; Demineralized group, Bioglass group (BG), and control group (intact enamel). The groups were chemically analyzed using (FTIR/ATR) Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy/attenuated total reflectance, (XRD) X-ray diffraction, and (SEM/EDS) scanning electron microscope equipped with electron-dispersive-spectroscopy. Moreover, 10 specimens from each group were tested using Transverse Micro Radiography (TMR) technique, and 15 specimens from each group were bonded with metal orthodontic brackets and tested for shear bond strength test (SBS). The data were analyzed statistically using One way ANOVA p < 0.05. RESULTS TMR study showed that bioglass group samples recorded lesion depth of 70.19 ± 29.21 μm and Δ Z (mineral loss) 732.15 ± 210.16 vol% μm which was significantly lower than the demineralized specimens having lesion depth of 115.75 ± 19.98 μm and Δ Z (mineral loss) 3472.69 ± 738.38 vol%μm, moreover, bioglass specimens recorded 14.15 ± 2.35 Mpa which was significantly higher than demineralized specimens 6.82+1.83 Mpa but less than the control specimens 20.5 + 6.1 MPa (p < 0.05). FTIR/ATR, XRD, and SEM/EDS tests showed that bioglass paste formed a layer of brushite crystals onto the treated enamel surface. CONCLUSION 45S5 bioglass paste may serve as an effective remineralizing agent for demineralized enamel.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) with methylene blue (MB) and indocyanine green (ICG) on bond strength of orthodontic brackets to enamel. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 45 non-carious and sound human premolar teeth were used in this study. All teeth were examined under a stereomicroscope at ×10 magnification. The samples were divided to 3 groups including no treatment (control group), aPDT with MB and 660 nm diode laser and aPDT with ICG and 808 nm diode laser. After aPDT procedure, orthodontic brackets were bonded to enamel surfaces. Then, the samples were thermocycled for 5000 cycles between 5° and 55° C in water bath. The brackets were then debonded using a universal testing machine. The adhesive remnant index (ARI) score and SEM microscope evaluation were assessed. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Post-hoc test were used to compare the SBS values among groups. RESULTS The highest SBS mean value was presented in group 1 (control) (31.98 ± 6.36). Whereas, the lowest SBS mean value was observed in group 3 (aPDT with ICG) (24.11 ± 5.78). There were significant differences in SBS values between control and aPDT groups (P < 0.05). Some superficial porosity and irregularity was presented following aPDT on surface of enamel when examined by scanning electron microscope. The mode of failure was mostly score 0 and score 1 in all groups. CONCLUSION MB and ICG mediated antimicrobial photodynamic therapy both reduced the bond strength of orthodontic brackets compared to control group.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to evaluate the combined effect of the sulfuric acid etching and an acidic adhesive conditioning on the shear bond strength of PEEK to a resin-matrix composite. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty PEEK specimens were assigned randomly to 4 groups for H2SO4 etching followed by universal adhesive (pH at 2.5) conditioning for 0, 1, 3, and 5 min. Thirty PEEK specimens were divided into 3 groups for only acidic adhesive conditioning for 0, 1, 3, and 5 min. After the light-curing of the adhesive, a nanohybrid resin composite was applied onto the surfaces and then light-cured following the manufacturer`s guidelines. All specimens were stored in distilled water at 37 °C for 24 h mechanical testing. Shear bond strength tests were performed using a universal testing machine. Surfaces were analyzed by SEM, light interferometry, FTIR, and liquid contact angle measurement. Statistical analysis was performed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc tests (p < 0.05). RESULTS No adhesion was achieved between untreated PEEK a resin-matrix composite, regardless of the adhesive conditioning time points. Shear bond strength of H2SO4-etched PEEK to resin-matrix composite increased with time (0 mmin. 4.95 ± 2.86 MPa < 1 min: 9.35 ± 2.26 MPa < 3 min: 17.84 ± 2.82 MPa < 5 min: 21.43 ± 5.00 MPa). SEM images revealed a significant modification of PEEK surface topography after the H2SO4 etching. SIGNIFICANCE The acidic adhesive was unable to modify the untreated PEEK surface to establish an effective adhesion although a synergistic effect was noticed when the universal (acidic) adhesive was applied over a H2SO4-etched PEEK surface, thus improving the PEEK to resin-matrix composite adhesion.

Abstract
Introduction: This study investigated the effect of various laser powers on the shear bond strength (SBS) of resin cement to the zirconia surface. Methods: Seventy-five zirconia disks were prepared and assigned to five groups including no surface treatment (control group), sandblasting with 50 µ Al2 O3 particles (second group), and Nd:YAG laser treatments with 2 W, 2.5 W and 3 W powers respectively (third, fourth and fifth groups). Afterwards, composite resin cylinders were cemented on zirconia disks using dual-curing resin cement. Before thermocycling (2000 cycles, 5-55°C), all samples were placed in distilled water at 37°C for 24 hours. Using a universal testing machine at the crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min, the SBS was examined. Also, using a stereomicroscope, the failure type was determined. Data analyses were performed using Welch and Games-Howell tests (P < 0.05). Results: The mean bond strength difference between the control group and the other groups was significant. The respective bond strength from the highest to the lowest was observed in the sandblast group, the laser group with 2.5 W power, the laser group with 3 W power, the laser group with 2 W power, and finally the control group. However, no significant difference was observed between different laser groups (P < 0.05). Also, there was no significant difference between the sandblast and laser groups with 2.5 W and 3 W power (P < 0.05). Most of the failures in the sandblasting and laser groups with powers of 2.5 W and 3 W were mixed, but in the control and 2 W laser groups, most of the failures were of adhesive nature. Conclusion: The highest bond strength was achieved by sandblasting with Al2 O3 particles and then using an Nd: YAG laser with a power of 2.5 W.

Abstract
AIM The aim of the current study was to assess the effect of different conditioning methods on Lithium di silicate (LDC) employing conventional and contemporary regimes bonded to metallic brackets. MATERIAL AND METHODS 70 discs of LDC were prepared and polished to attain smooth surface. Samples were allocated into seven groups according to ceramic surface conditioning. Group 1 surface treated with Er-YAG laser and saline (S), Group 2 PDT using MBP + S, Group 3 H F + S (control), Group 3 HF (Hydrofluoric acid) + saline, Group 4 HF (Hydrofluoric acid) + ultrasonic bath (UB) + S, Group 5 sand blasting the glass ceramic surface with 120 um Al2O3, Group 6 LDC surface conditioned with SECP(Etch and Prime) and Group 7 ECL(Laser) + S on was irradiated on LDC. Both chemical and mechanical surface treatments of LDC were followed by placement of metallic brackets. Samples were arranged in universal testing machine for shear bond strength (SBS) testing. Bond failure of brackets were assessed using ARI. To assess and compare the mean and standard deviations (SD) among experimental groups analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed. All treatment combination means were compared using the post hoc Tukey's multiple comparison test at a significance level of (p ≤ 0.05). RESULTS SBS values of Group 2 H F acid + S displayed highest bond durability (22.28 ± 1.09 MPa). Whereas, specimens in Group 4 surface treated with 120 μm Al2O3 displayed lowest SBS scores (11.81 ± 0.55 MPa) and these bond scores were comparable to PDT using MBP + S (12.54 ± 1.09 MPa) (p > 0.05). LDC surface treated by ECL + S (21.11 ± 3.85 MPa), HF + UB + S (19.28 ± 0.52 MPa) exhibited results comparable to HF acid + S (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION LDC conditioned with HFS still remains as gold standard. Use of PDT for surface treatment of LDC and bonded to metallic bracket is not recommended as it results in decreased bond durability. Use of ECL-S and HF + UB + S has a potential to be used alternatively to HFS for LDC conditioning.

Abstract
Dental resin composites (DRCs) with 15 wt% (EC-15%) and 20 wt% (EC-20%) synthesized branched silicone methacrylate (BSM) in resin matrix have showed anti-adhesion effect against Streptococcus mutans. With the aim to evaluate the BSM containing DRCs further, water sorption (WS), solubility (SL), mechanical properties before and after water immersion, anti-adhesion effect against dual-species, bonding strength to adhesive treated dentin, and cytotoxicity of BSM containing DRCs were investigated. DRC without BSM was used as control. The WS and SL were obtained until the mass variation of composite in distilled water kept stable. Three-point bending test was used to evaluate flexural strength (FS) and modulus (FM) of composite before and after water immersion. Mixture of Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus acidophilus was used to study the anti-adhesion effect against dual-species. Bonding strength of composite to adhesive treated dentin was measured through macro-shear test. Extract of composite was used to evaluate its cytotoxicity effect on L-929 mouse fibroblasts, and cell viability was obtained by MTT assay. The results showed that EC-15% and EC-20% had similar WS and SL as control (p < 0.05); After water immersion, FS and FM of all composites decreased (p < 0.05), but there was no significant difference in value of FS and FM between different groups (p > 0.05); More bacteria were recovered from the surface of control than those from the surface of EC-15% and EC-20% (p < 0.05); Extract of EC-15% was less cytotoxic (higher cell viability) than those EC-20% and control (p < 0.05). All of results revealed that incorporation of 15 wt% or 20 wt% BSM in resin matrix could endow DRC with inhibition effect on dual-species biofilm formation without impairing physiochemical properties, bonding strength to adhesive treated dentin, and cytotoxicity of DRC.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of different cleaning methods on the shear bond strength (SBS) of a 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP)-containing self-adhesive resin cement to zirconia after saliva contamination. METHODS Sixty zirconia specimens were randomly divided into four groups (n=15) according to treatment surface. Except for the control group, all samples were contaminated with saliva and were then rinsed with water-spray and air-dried. Subsequently, the specimens were either treated with a cleaning paste (CP), with argon plasma (AP), or did not undergo an additional cleaning process (WS). An MDP-containing self-adhesive resin cement was applied onto the ceramic surfaces. Specimens were stored in water (24 hours) followed by thermocycling (5°C to 55°C for 10.000 cycles). SBS tests were performed in a universal testing machine, and the results (MPa ± SD) were statistically analyzed using ANOVA and Bonferroni post-hoc test. Fractured surfaces were examined to identify the failure types using a stereomicroscopy and SEM. RESULTS The surface cleaning treatment (p < 0.05) significantly affected the results. The highest SBS values were observed in the control group (12.16 ± 1.22 MPa) and were statistically comparable to values for the CP group (11.38 ± 1.65 MPa). The AP group (9.17 ± 1.06 MPa) showed significantly higher bond strength than the WS group (6.95 ± 1.20 MPa), but it showed significantly lower strength than the control and CP groups. CONCLUSIONS The CP application was the most effective method in removing saliva contamination. The AP treatment could not restore the SBS to the same level as uncontaminated specimens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No clinical studies have evaluated shear bond strength and the clinical failure rates of the rebonded metallic brackets following different enamel-reconditioning methods. The objective of the study was to compare the in vivo clinical failure rate and the in vitro rebond strength of bonded brackets following two enamel surface preparation methods. METHODS For the in vitro study, 45 extracted human premolars were etched; brackets were bonded using light-cured composite resin. Forty-five premolars were divided into three groups (15 in each group): the initial bonding group (IB group), the rebonding group in which enamel was reconditioned using sandblasting before acid etching (SBE group), and the rebonding group in which enamel was reconditioned using acid etching only (E group). For the in vivo study, 80 premolars in 20 patients (13-18 years old) were rebonded using the same procedures in the SBE group and E group. The two methods were used in all patients using a split-mouth design. The number of failing brackets was quantified over 6 months. Differences were statistically analyzed by one-way analysis of variance, followed by post hoc tests. RESULTS The mean shear bond strength for the IB, SBE, and E groups was 19.38, 22.37, and 17.31 MPa, respectively. A significant difference was observed in the bond strength of the three evaluated groups (P < 0.001). The differences in the bond strength were significant between the IB group and the SBE group, as well as between the SBE group and the E group. The clinical failure rate for bonded brackets was 10% in the SBE group, and 25% in the E group and this difference was statistically significant (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Reconditioning of enamel surfaces using both intraoral air abrasion and etching in the rebonding process led to higher rebond strength than using acid etching alone and even higher than the initial brackets bonding. This trial was retrospectively registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (ID: NCT04606043).

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effects of different surface treatments protocol on the bonding strength between lithium disilicate glass ceramic and resin cements. Methods: Ceramic specimens of 15 mm×13 mm×3 mm were used to evaluate the effects of different surface treatments of hydrofluoric acid etching and silane coupling in current research. Firstly, the standard lithium ceramic specimens were divided into 8 groups (n=16), and were etched by 4.5% hydrofluoric acid for 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 60, 120 and180 s. Then specimens in each group was further divided into two sub-groups. In one sub-group specimens were coated with coupling agents and in the other were not. Shear bonding strength (SBS) and failure mode were tested and analyzed. The surface morphologies of hydrofluoric acid-etched ceramic specimens were observed by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Secondly, after being etched by 4.5% hydrofluoric acid for 30 s, the lithium ceramic specimens were coated with coupling agents at different temperatures: room temperature (12 ℃) for 60 s, 60 ℃ hot air for 60 s and 100 ℃ hot air for 60 s (n=8). SBS and fracture mode were tested and analyzed. The infrared spectrum analysis was used to characterize the coupled surfaces of the ceramic samples. Results: The maximum SBS values were obtained after the specimens were etched for 30 s. The silane coupled group showed a higher SBS value [(25.91±4.30) MPa, P<0.05] than the no-silane-coupled group [(20.27±4.92) MPa]. SBS decreased with extended etching time (>30 s) and the SEM photos showed over-etching morphologies. The 60 ℃ hot air treatment resulted in the maximum SBS value [(28.70±5.32) MPa] than that of the room temperature [(20.08±3.64) MPa] or 100 ℃ hot air [(25.64±4.86) MPa, P<0.05]. And the cohesive failure mode was found in 60 ℃ hot air treatment group. The infrared spectroscopy analysis showed the highest amount of silicon oxide bond in the 60 ℃ hot air treatment group. Conclusions: In this study, for this product, the optimum etching time of 4.5% hydrofluoric acid was 30 s. Furthermore, an ideal SBS value could be obtained when the silane coupling agents were applied additionally. SBS could be increased substantially when the 30 s-etched-ceramic product was coated with silane coupling agents at 60 ℃ hot air for 60 s.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the clinical and in vitro performance of single-component orthodontic adhesives under metal brackets. MATERIALS AND METHODS Bimaxillary orthodontic treatment was required for sixty patients and 60 premolar teeth were divided into three groups (n: 20). The single-component orthodontic adhesives Biofix and GC Ortho Connect (GC) that did not require primers were compared to the control group using Transbond XT, which was applied with a primer. For each patient, total bonding time was measured. The Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI(Bracket)) score was noted over 12 months. In vitro tests were used to evaluate specimens, shear bond strength (SBS), ARI(Bracket), and Enamel Surface Index (ESI). After in vitro debonding, the enamel surface and bracket base were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). RESULTS Clinical failure rate with primer was 9.0%, while it was 8.0 and 10.0 for GC and Biofix, respectively. The mean in vitro SBS values of the Biofix, GC, and Transbond XT groups were 8.21, 8.07, and 7.37 MPa, respectively. There were no statistically differences in clinical failure (p = 0.160) and SBS values (p = 0.158). Mean differences in bond-up time per jaw were 9.65, 10.51, and 11.97 min, which were statistically significant (p = 0.0001). CONCLUSION Single-component adhesives had acceptable SBS values and enamel effects according to SEM-EDX analysis. Clinically, bonding failure was not shown statistically inferior to bonding with primer. There was also a significant difference in bond-up times. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Considering an intensely working clinic with bonding processes for at least two jaws per day, this means a saving of the chair time of 1 patient per week. However, better saliva contamination and moisture control with lack of the primer stage and, thereby, an acceptable bracket failure rate will bring clinically significant results with less chair time for clinicians.

Abstract
AIM The aim of present ex-vivo study was to assess and evaluate the influence of alternative dentinal conditioning methods- Er,Cr:YSGG (ECL) and Photodynamic therapy (PDT) in comparison to traditional etching regimes- Self Etch Resin (SER) and total etch and rinse (TER) on the bond values of Bioactive restorative material (BA) and Multicore (MC) bulk filled resin composite restorations. MATERIAL AND METHODS Eighty caries free mandibular molars were disinfected and embedded in acrylic resin up to Cemento enamel junction (CEJ). Buccal surfaces of all samples were grounded to depth of 2 mm. Specimens were divided into eight groups (n = 20) based on surface treatment received. Samples in group 1 and 2 conditioned with ECYL, group 3 and 4 pre-treated with methylene blue photosensitizer (MBP), group 5 and 6 surfaces conditioned with TER and samples in group 7 and 8 conditioned with SER. Dentin bonding agent was applied and samples of group 1, 3, 5 and 7 were bonded with BA and 2,4,6,8 bonded to MC. Samples were placed in universal testing machine for SBS testing. Data was assessed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey multiple comparisons test. RESULTS Specimens in group 6 treated with TER and bonded with MC demonstrated maximum SBS (19.61 ± 0.587 MPa). Whereas, group 3 dentin conditioned to MBP and bonded to BA displayed lowest bond values (12.01 ± 0.892 MPa). Samples in group 3 and group 4 dentin treated with MBP bonded to MC (13.68 ± 0.221 MPa) and BA (12.01 ± 0.892 MPa) displayed comparable bond integrity (p > 0.05) CONCLUSION: Dentin pre-treated with TER still remains the gold standard. ECYL as an alternative approach to condition dentin has shown potential and can be recommended in clinical settings. MC as bulk fill composite is recommended over BA irrespective of dentine conditioning technique. MBP as dentin conditioner needs further investigation.

Abstract
This study investigates the effect of pre-coating with methyl methacrylate (MMA) containing ultraviolet (UV) photoinitiators on the bond strength of poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK). Cylindrical PEEK blocks were irradiated with 365 nm UV light for 5-20 s after they were coated with MMA containing 0.4-3.0 wt% UV photoinitiators: [1-phenyl-1,2-propanedione (PPD)], [diphenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl) (TMDPO)], and [phenyl bis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl) phosphine oxide (BTMPO)]. Pre-coated PEEKs were bonded to PEEK blocks with a MMA-based adhesive resin. The shear bond strength was measured using a universal testing machine. Secondary electron images were captured to observe failure surfaces. The data were analyzed with one- and two-way ANOVA and Tukey's post hoc tests (p<0.05). The highest bond strength (20.7±5.1 MPa) was observed for pre-coating with MMA containing 0.4 wt% BTMPO, for 20 s of UV irradiation. Cohesive failure of the adhesive resin was observed. The use of this pre-coating led to improved bonding performance of PEEK.

Abstract
The aim was to investigate the effect of cryopreservation on the enamel bonding properties of orthodontic brackets. Sixty-six human premolars were randomly allocated to a control group or a cryopreserved group. Conventional stainless-steel orthodontic brackets were bonded with a light cure adhesive on the buccal side of the premolars. The shear bond strength (SBS) was determined at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. The SBS and adhesive remnant index (ARI) were evaluated respectively by an independent samples t test and Fisher's exact test (α≤0.05). The mean failure load was lower in the cryopreserved group. However, this difference in SBS was not significant (p=0.443). In both groups, the ARI mostly indicated a failure at the enamel-adhesive interface. The mean ARI scores for both groups were not significantly different (p=0.099). Within the limitations of this macro bond strength testing, it can be concluded that cryopreservation does not significantly affect the bonding properties of enamel.

Abstract
The effect of etching for 90 s with low concentrations (0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0%) of hydrofluoric acid (HF) on the adhesiveness of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) resin blocks [CERASMART (CS), SHOFU BLOCK HC (HC), KATANA AVENCIA Block(KA), and VITA ENAMIC (EN)] was investigated. Energy dispersive spectroscopy revealed that the silicon content of HC, KA, and EN groups remained almost constant with HF etching of ≤4%. HF etching increased the surface roughness of all blocks. The HF concentration resulting in the highest shear bond strength in each group was as follows: CS (2.0%), HC (3.0%), KA (3.5%) and EN (0.5%). Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the bonding interface of etched surfaces differed significantly from that of airborne-particle abrasion surfaces. Thus, low concentration HF etching is effective for surface treatment of CAD/CAM resin blocks. The etching effect and optimum HF concentration differ with the block composition and structure.

Abstract
AIM The aim of present study was to assess and compare different conditioning methods (laser, PDT and conventional) on shear bond strength (SBS) of resin modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC) bonded to composite (sandwich technique). MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty specimens were prepared from RMGIC and were packed in a teflon mould placed on glass slab. Through each of the glass slab the cement was light cured for 20 s. Now samples were randomly allocated into five groups (n = 10) according to pre-treatment protocols. In group 1 RMGIC were conditioned with MBP using PDT, Samples in group 2 treated with Er,Cr:YSGG (ECYL), group 3 pre-treated with Nd:YAG laser (NYL), samples in group 4 surface conditioned with air abrasion (AA) and group 5 conditioned with 37 % phosphoric acid (PA). Specimens after conditioning were rinsed with distilled water. Adhesive Adper Single Bond 2 was applied on treated surface of RMGIC and cured. Teflon mold was utilized to hold the composite Filtek Z250 in an incremental technique. For SBS testing all specimens were placed under shear knife edge at 1 K N at a speed of 0.5mm2 until bond failure. Optical microscope was used to evaluate failure pattern at 10x magnification. The data of SBS in Megapascal were subjected to statistical test. Analysis of variance was followed by Post hoc test with level of significance at 5 %. RESULT The maximum SBS was found in group 5 RMGIC conditioned with 37 % PA (16.45 ± 0.32 MPa). Whereas, group 1 (MBP, PDT) demonstrated significantly lower bond integrity (9.82 ± 1.08 MPa) compared to all experimental groups. Bond integrity of RMGIC surface treated with MBP, PDT (9.82 ± 1.08 MPa), group 3 lased with NYL (11.47 ± 0.53 MPa) and samples in group 4 conditioned with AA (11.23 ± 0.47 MPa) were comparable (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION ECYL has a potential to be used for conditioning of RMGIC prior to composite restoration (sandwich technique). MBP at 100 mg/L deteriorates SBS of composite to RMGIC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE White spot lesion (WSL) is one of the most important complications of fixed orthodontic treatment. Many methods have been studied to prevent this problem. This study is aimed to investigate the effect of high concentration nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAP) on shear bond strength (SBS) of metal brackets and Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI) score in different preparation methods. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty human premolars, which were extracted for orthodontic reasons were included in this in vitro study. The teeth were randomly divided into 4 groups of 15 each: one control group and three nHAP groups. After applying nHAP for 2 to 3 minutes daily for 10 days, the groups 2 to 4 underwent sandblasting using 50μm aluminium oxide and 30 seconds etching, 60 and 30 seconds etching, respectively, and the brackets were then bonded to the teeth. After debonding, SBS and ARI scores were recorded. Data were analysed using the ANOVA test and posthoc test for pairwise comparisons. RESULTS No significant difference was observed in SBS between the control group and the nHAP groups. The sandblasted teeth showed significantly higher SBS than the 30 seconds etching after nHAP application (P=0.02). The teeth etched for 60 seconds showed a significantly higher ARI score than the 30 seconds etched teeth with (P=0.003) or without (P<0.001) nHAP application. CONCLUSIONS The use of nHAP before bracket bonding can be considered as a caries preventive method since it did not compromise the SBS. Sixty seconds etching is recommended for less likely damage to the enamel after debonding.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to evaluate the repairability of a 3D printed denture base material. The effects of surface treatments and artificial aging on the shear bond strength (SBS) were investigated. METHODS A total of 224 specimens were printed by digital light processing technology (Rapid Shape D30II) using a 3D printing denture base material (FREEPRINT denture). To evaluate the repairability, the SBS and failure modes were measured after surface treatment and artificial aging. Specifically, half of the specimens were further performed with thermocycling (5-55 °C, 5000 cycles) for artificial aging. The aged and non-aged specimens were further divided into four subgroups (n = 28) to simulate a denture base repair with one of the following treatments: control (without surface treatment), monomer (applying methylmethacrylate for 120 s), P600 (grinding with P600 silicon carbide paper) and sandblasting (blasted with 125 μm aluminum oxide with 2 bar), respectively. Surface roughness was measured (n = 6) and surface topography was observed by scanning electron microscopy (n = 2). A test rod was built on the sample surface using the same 3D printing material. Afterward, all specimens further underwent thermocycling (5-55 °C, 10,000 cycles). RESULTS For non-aged groups, no significant differences in SBS could be found (p < 0.05), and bondings failed cohesively in the denture base material. Regarding the aged control and monomer group, adhesive failures at the interface were primarily observed, and SBS values were statistically lower than those of the other groups (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The 3D printed denture base material exhibited favorable repairability. For the realignment surface, the SBS at the bonding interface is satisfying and additional surface treatments could be not necessary. In contrast, the aged surface could significantly decrease the SBS; hence subtractive surface treatments are highly recommended.

Abstract
AIM The aim of the present study was to evaluate the bond integrity of bioactive cement (BAc) in contrast to conventional cement Calibra (C) after dentin treated with different surface conditioners (PDT, EYL, ECL) MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty non-carious permanent mandibular molars were disinfected and embedded in acrylic resin till cement-o-enamel junction. For homogeneity the buccal surface were grounded and polished. Samples were categorized into three main groups based on conditioning technique. Samples in group 1 and 2 dentin conditioned with Er,Cr:YSGG (ECL), group 3 and 4 surface treated with Er:YAG (EYL) and group 5 and 6 treated with photodynamic therapy (PDT).On conditioned surface bonding agent was applied and light cured. Samples from group 1,3,5 were bonded to Calibra (C). Whereas, specimens in group 2,4,6 were conditioned with bioactive cement (BAc) and subjected to ageing followed by shear bond strength testing (SBS) in universal testing machine. To detect significance difference between means of different groups analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed followed by Tukey's post-hoc tests. RESULTS The maximum SBS was displayed in group 1, dentin conditioned with ECL and bonded to C (20.23 ± 0.47 MPa). Whereas, group 6, PDT of dentin to BAc demonstrated lowest bond integrity among experimental groups (12.97 ± 0.25 MPa). Bond strength of group 1, ECL-C (21.55 ± 3.08 MPa) and group 3 EYL-C (19.11 ± 0.65 MPa) were comparable (p > 0.05). Group 5 samples treated with PDT, MB-C (13.41±0.32 MPa) and group 6, MB-BAc (12.97 ± 0.25 MPa) were also comparable (p > 0.05) CONCLUSION: BAc bonded to dentin after surface conditioning with ECL, EYL and PDT presented lower SBS in comparison to conventional cement C. Further studies are required to extrapolate the current findings.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to assess the effects of three adhesives with different viscosities and an adhesion promoter on the shear bond strength (SBS) of orthodontic brackets bonded to human premolars with an indirect bonding system (IDBS). High, medium and low viscosity IDBSs with and without application of the adhesion promoter were used. The mean SBSs of the high and low viscosity IDBSs were significantly higher than that of the medium viscosity IDBS. Application of the adhesion promoter significantly increased the SBSs. The adhesion promoter significantly increased the surface roughness and free-energy of enamel. Irrespective of application or nonapplication of the adhesion promoter, the high and low viscosity IDBSs are effective for bracket bonding. Use of the medium viscosity IDBS in combination with the adhesion promoter is recommended for obtaining a clinically acceptable SBS.

Abstract
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a self-limiting nanoscale film deposition technology with the advantages of good stability, consistency and conformability. In this study, we proposed to deposit silica (SiO2) films over dental zirconium-oxide (ZrO2) by ALD for better SiO2 films and higher bond strength between ZrO2 and resin. To investigate the superiority of film deposited by ALD, other surface modification methods such as sol-gel, vapor phase hydrolysis and electrostatic self-assembly were compared in terms of the short-term and long-term bond strength between ZrO2 and resin, measured by universal testing machine. Meanwhile, the surface morphology and chemical elemental analysis were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Results showed that the SiO2 films deposited by ALD or electrostatic self-assembly were uniform and consistent while sol-gel and vapor phase hydrolysis formed SiO2 films with cracks or pores, changing the morphology of ZrO2. ALD had the best results among all methods and increased the bond strength to 16.49 ± 1.60 MPa and 13.44 ± 1.63 MPa before and after aging respectively, which is expected to improve the long-term success rate of clinical dental ZrO2 prostheses.

Abstract
Background To investigate the effects of Er:YAG laser pre-treatment on the dentin structure and shear bond strength of primary teeth. Methods Dentin specimens were prepared using freshly extracted intact primary molars and divided randomly into four groups based on the surface treatment applied. The control and etchant groups received no treatment and conventional acid etching treatment, respectively, while the energy and frequency groups received laser surface treatment with variable energy (50–300 mJ) and frequency (5–30 Hz) parameters. The morphology was observed using scanning electron microscopy. The surface-treated dentin slices were bonded to resin tablets, followed by thermocycle treatment. The shear strength was determined using a universal testing machine and de-bonded surfaces were observed using a stereomicroscope. Results SEM observation showed that the surface morphology of the dentin slices changed after etching as well as after Er:YAG laser pre-treatment with different energy and frequency values. The dentin tubules opened within a specific energy (50–200 mJ) and frequency (5–20 Hz) range. Beyond this range, the intertubular dentin showed cracks and structural disintegration. Shear strength tests showed no significant changes after acid etching. The shear strength increased significantly (P < 0.05) after Er:YAG laser pre-treatment compared with that of the control group. The shear strength increased within the same energy (50–200 mJ) and frequency (5–20 Hz) range as the tubule opening, but not significantly (P > 0.05). The most common mode of interface failure was adhesive (interface) failure, followed by mixed and resin cohesive failure. Conclusions Pre-treatment using Er:YAG laser opens the dentinal tubules without the formation of a smear layer and improves the bonding strength between the primary teeth dentin and the resin composites.
