What is adhesion?
solid solid
3. Micromechanical interlocking
4. Chemical bonding
Enamel etching
● Self-etching primers
○ Acidic groups are added to etch tooth surface
○ No need for rinsing and drying
○ May not be effective on unprepared enamel
● Self priming adhesive: most commonly used
now
th
5 generation
Continue,
● Sixth generation
systems
(all-in-one)
Microleakage
● Tests used:
○ Shear bond strength
○ Tensile bond strength
● Data were variable due to variability of tooth
surface, and different testing methods
○ Microtensile and microshear bond strength: less
variability.
● Current bonding agents shifted the bonding
failure from cohesive to adhesive
Amalgam bonding
● Metal bonding:
○ PFM
○ Resin bonded bridges (Maryland)
● Lab. And clinical techniques for bonding:
○ Sandblasting for micromechanical retention
○ Electrochemical etching or placing a layer of tin by
electroplater
○ Surface cleaned and dried, then coated with
bonding resin and cemented
Metal bonding continue,
