Abstract
- Purpose: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of all-in-one adhesives as fissure sealants. Methods: Resin-enamel bonded specimens were fabricated between polished and ground enamel surfaces using two all-in-one adhesives (One-Up Bond F and Xeno CF Bond) and two resin sealants (Teethmate F-1 and Helioseal F). Specimen beams were prepared and microtensile bond tests were performed at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/minute. The bond strengths obtained were subjected to one-way ANOVA and Scheffe's F test (P< 0.05: n=12 for each group). To evaluate the etching effect of phosphoric acid and the all-in-one adhesives, the treated enamel surfaces (37% phosphoric acid, 40% phosphoric acid, or all-in-one adhesives) were examined by FE-SEM. Results: The bond strengths of the two all-in-one adhesives tested to the polished enamel surface were significantly lower (P< 0.05) than to ground enamel. However, no significant differences (P> 0.05) were found between the polished and ground enamel surfaces for resin sealants using phosphoric acid. Under SEM examination, 37% or 40% phosphoric acid etched the enamel surface more than all-in-one adhesives. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
