Dentinal bonding after chemomechanical caries removal--effect of surface topography. 1989

K Wolski, and M Goldman, and J H Kronman, and D Nathanson

A study was carried out to determine whether or not the topography of the dentinal surface that is left after caries removal affects bond strength. The caries was removed either by a rotating instrument and a bur or by the chemomechanical method using D,L,2-aminobutyric acid. The bond strength appeared to be enhanced on those specimens treated by the chemomechanical removal since the surface was characterized by lack of a smeared layer and by open dentinal tubules and numerous undercuts.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D001840	Dental Bonding	An adhesion procedure for orthodontic attachments, such as plastic DENTAL CROWNS. This process usually includes the application of an adhesive material (DENTAL CEMENTS) and letting it harden in-place by light or chemical curing.

D003737	Dental Cavity Preparation	An operation in which carious material is removed from teeth and biomechanically correct forms are established in the teeth to receive and retain restorations. A constant requirement is provision for prevention of failure of the restoration through recurrence of decay or inadequate resistance to applied stresses.

D003804	Dentin	The hard portion of the tooth surrounding the pulp, covered by enamel on the crown and cementum on the root, which is harder and denser than bone but softer than enamel, and is thus readily abraded when left unprotected.
