Shear bond strength of glass-ionomer cements to dentin: Effects of dentin depth and type of material activation

The purpose of this study was to determine, through the shear bond strength of in vitro tests, that the type of glass-ionomer cements (conventional or hybrid) and dentin depth (superficial or deep) are factors that may influence the adhesion of these materials to the dentin structure. Specimens of two conventional glass-ionomer cements (Vidrion R® - SS White and Chelon Fil®- Espe) and a hybrid-glass ionomer cement (Vitremer® - 3M) were separated in groups and prepared for the shear bond strength test. The results submitted to statistical analysis were (all values are in MPa): Group I - Vidrion R - superficial dentin 1.97 (<FONT FACE="Symbol">±</FONT> 0.56); deep dentin 3.15 (<FONT FACE="Symbol">±</FONT> 1.51); Group II - Chelon Fil - superficial dentin 2.43 (<FONT FACE="Symbol">±</FONT> 1.43); deep dentin 3.21 (<FONT FACE="Symbol">±</FONT> 0.89); and Group III - Vitremer - superficial dentin 7.04 (<FONT FACE="Symbol">±</FONT> 2.04); deep dentin 10.30 (<FONT FACE="Symbol">±</FONT> 1.99). There were significant differences between dentin depth and type of materials
