Abstract
The long-term durability of bonds between adhesive resins and dentin is of significant importance for the longevity of bonded restorations. We carried out an in vivo one-year study to evaluate the durability of resin-dentin bonds in the oral cavity, as well as to test the hypothesis that the adhesive interface would show morphological changes in vivo over time. Very shallow saucer-shaped dentin cavities were prepared in 12 intact teeth of one Japanese monkey ( Macaca fuscata) under general anesthesia. The cavities were restored with Clearfil Liner Bond II and Clearfil Photo Posterior resin composite. The teeth were extracted at three different times: immediately, and 180 and 360 days after placement of the restorations. One day after the monkey was killed, specimens of the three time periods were subjected to the micro-tensile bond test at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. The surfaces of the failed bonds were observed under a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). Bond strength measurements in this study were successfully performed and were stable at approximately 19 MPa during the one-year testing. Scanning electron microscopic observations of the failed surfaces revealed, at the top of the hybrid layer and within the adhesive resin, porosity which increased over time. Long-term bonds can be assessed in vivo by the combined evaluation of the microtensile bond strength and SEM morphological examination of the adhesive interface.Keywords
