Effects of Endodontic Irrigants on Shear Bond Strength of Mild Universal Adhesives to Dentin

Product not yet rated

CE Hours: 1.0

Description: The objective of this in vitro study was to evaluate the shear bond strength (SBS) of several universal adhesives to dentin treated with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), and NaOCl followed by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA).

At the conclusion of this article, the reader will be able to: 

  • Examine the effect of endodontic irrigants (NaOCl and NaOCl + EDTA) on the shear bond strength of mild universal adhesives in self-etch and total-etch modes.
  • Identify the mechanisms by which NaOCl and EDTA influence the dentin matrix and the bonding process of adhesives.
  • Evaluate strategies to optimize bond strength when using universal adhesives after root canal irrigation with NaOCl and EDTA.
