The aim of this study was to evaluate the maximum amount of chlorhexidine (CHX) that could be incorporated to self-adhesive resin cements to add antibacterial effect without affecting the physical pro...
Self-adhesive resin cement has been used extensively with zirconia crowns. Several in vitro studies showed that adhesive resin cementation may increase zirconia crowns' retention and their fatigue res...
This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the clinical performance, survival and success rates and complications encountered with zirconia crowns cemented with two different self-adhesive resin cemen...
A total of 112 patients who received 176 monolithic zirconia crowns were evaluated. Crowns were cemented with RelyX Unicem 2 (n = 74) and Panavia SA (n = 102) self-adhesive resin cements. Clinical ass...
The 5-year survival and success rates were 100% and 96.4%, respectively. The complications encountered were recurrent caries (2.2%) and the need for endodontic treatment (0.5%). No technical complicat...
Survival rate of zirconia crowns cemented with two different self-adhesive resin cements was 100% after 5 years....
The cement bonding strategy and the polymerization mode can influence the prognosis of indirect restorations. The microtensile bond strength (μTBS) and dentin endogenous enzymatic activity of a dual-c...
PV5 was used to lute composite overlays after dentin treatment with TP or UA. The resin cement was self-cured, SC (1 h at 37 °C) or dual-cured, DC (20 s light-cure followed by 15 min self-cure at 37°C...
TP/DC obtained the highest adhesive strengths (45 ± 9 and 36.6 ± 8), while UA/SC (17 ± 8 and 11 ± 4) the lowest, both at T...
The dual-cure resin cement used in combination with its accelerator-enhancer primer showed superior bonding performances with respect to universal adhesive. Dual-curing the resin cement was determinan...
Clinicians must be aware to faithfully follow manufacturer's recommendation regarding the adhesive strategy suggested with the resin cement used....
To evaluate the effect of zirconia priming with MDP-Salt before MDP containing primers and self-adhesive cement on the shear bond strength....
Fully sintered high translucent zirconia specimens (n = 120) were assigned into 2 groups (n = 60 each): Control (No Pretreatment) and Methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate salt (MDP-Salt) pretreat...
The use of MDP-Salt significantly improved the SBS (p < .05) for all tested subgroups. Self-adhesive cement showed an insignificant difference with MDP + Silane group for both groups (p > .05). MDP + ...
MDP-Salt pretreatment can improve bonding performance between zirconia and MDP containing products....
Currently, a classification of resin cements that includes relatively recently formulated ("universal") cements is lacking. Furthermore, the terminology used to define different resin cements in the s...
An analysis of peer-reviewed literature (PubMed search), as well as market research on definitive resin composite cements were performed....
A tendency toward simplified and versatile luting materials was observed both in the scientific literature and on the dental market with the advent of self-adhesive/one-step resin cements. However, ad...
This review presented the current advances in the field of resin-based cements, which are reflected in the proposed classification. The term "universal cement" was disambiguated, which will help stand...
The classification of resin-based cements and a better understanding of the proper terminology will help standardize the terminology in published research, as well as improve the understanding of the ...
Cariogenic bacteria and dental plaque biofilm at prosthesis margins are considered a primary risk factor for failed restorations. Resin cement containing antibacterial agents can be beneficial in cont...
This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the repair bond strength of resin-modified glass ionomer cement using either the same material or a universal adhesive in the etch-and-rinse and self-etch modes p...
A low-shrinkage-stress resin-based cement with antibacterial properties could be beneficial to create a cement with lower stress at the tooth-restoration interface, which could help to enhance the lon...
The monomers urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) and triethylene glycol divinylbenzyl ether (TEG-DVBE) were combined and denoted as UV resin. Three cements were fabricated: (1) UV+ 0%DMAHDM (experimental c...
The novel bio-interactive cement demonstrated excellent antibacterial and mechanical properties. Compared to commercial and experimental controls, adding DMAHDM into the UV cement significantly reduce...
The new antibacterial low-shrinkage-stress resin-based cement provides strong antibacterial action and maintains excellent mechanical properties with reduced polymerization shrinkage stress....
A low-shrinkage-stress resin-based cement containing DMAHDM was developed with potent antibacterial effects and promising mechanical properties. This cement may potentially enhance the longevity of fi...
Regular composites could produce less polymerization stress than resin cements when luting laminate veneers but there is no proper evidence to support this theory. The current study aimed to determine...
The study considered (i) regular resin composites (Admira Fusion, Gradia, Grandioso, Palfique, Sirius Z, Viscalor and Z100) at room and pre-warmed (PW) at 69ºC, (ii) flowable composites (Sigma Flow an...
For regular composites, the pre-warming did not affect DC, shrinkage and modulus but significantly increased the stress magnitude. Correlation tests indicated a significant relationship only between s...
Regular composites can produce less polymerization stress than resin cements when luting laminate veneers. Polymerization stress was dependent on the shrinkage magnitude, but not on the degree of conv...
There is a growing interest in using pre-heated composites instead of dual-cured cements when luting indirect restorations. This study evaluated the film thickness obtained from two pre-heated composi...
Forty specimens of human dentin and composite discs were prepared and divided into four groups depending on the luting process. Each group was randomly equally divided to be handled by two operators w...
Mean film thickness ranged from 156.16 ± 4.7 to 33.82 ± 0.7 μm. Significant differences (p < 0.001) were noticed between expert and novice results with pre-heated composites....
Within the limits of this study, using pre-heated composites as a luting cement requires a better level of expertise to achieve a clinically acceptable film thickness....
Using pre-heated composites as luting agent for indirect restorations requires an experimented skill level to achieve a clinically recommended film thickness....
