What is adhesion?
The force that binds two dissimilar materials
together when they are brought into intimatecontact
In dentistry, bonding refers to the process of
attaching a restorative material to tooth
structure by adhesion

Basic principles in the bonding
process
Surface preparation to remove plaque & debris
Acid etching with phosphoric acid, to remove
mineral, create porosity, wettability Bonding agent applied and flows to fill the
porosities and create resin tags
(micromechanical retention) Resin applied and bonds chemically to
underlying bonding agent (primary bonding)

Adhesion
For proper adhesion to occur, intimate
contact between the adhesive and the
substrate is needed. This intimate contact isaffected by:
Wettability of the substrate surface The viscosity of adhesive
The morphology or surface roughness,

Factors affecting adhesion
1. Wettability and surface energy
High surface energy low surface energy (solid)
Surface energy: the attraction of atoms to a surface(directed inward). In liquids, it is called surface tension

Enamel etching
Introduced by Michael Buonocore in 1950s
Etching time: 10-30 seconds (around 15seconds)
Primary teeth and fluoride treated teeth
require more time Etched enamel looks frosty white when dried
Etching produces a rough surface (pits) intowhich resin flows and forms resin tags =micromechanical retention
8/3/2019 Lecture 7 & 8- Bonding and Adhesives (Slides)
11/43
11
Enamel etching
Resin tags may penetrate to a depth of 10-20
microns in etched enamel The depth of penetration depends on:
Etching time
Rinsing time
These two actors determine how effective
etching was, and how well debris wereremoved from enamel surface
8/3/2019 Lecture 7 & 8- Bonding and Adhesives (Slides)
12/43
12
Enamel etching
Without etching, bonding is weakened and
this leads to microleakage
In amalgam corrosion products may seal anyspaces between cavity and restoration, in
GIC the release of fluoride provides
protection but in composite, good bonding isessential.

Enamel etching
Liquid or gel (the gel is
made by adding
colloidal silica to the
acid) phosphoric acid
30-50% (usually 37%).

Procedure
Acid etch is applied
using a brush or, if acid
is supplied in
disposable syringes,
the acid maybe applied
directly out of the
syringe tip
Etchant is applied for15 seconds, or longer is
mentioned previously

Procedure continue,
Rinsing is done with water for 20 seconds
then dried well. It should have a frosty whiteappearance
Enamel should be kept clean and
contaminant free (saliva, blood, etc)
If contamination occurs enamel should be re-
etched for 10 seconds

Enamel bonding
In the past, etching and bonding involved
only enamel. Currently, total etch technique isdone, and bonding agents are applied to both
enamel and dentine.
Bonding agents used for enamel bonding
were made from resin combined with diluents
to lower viscosity. (Bis-GMA + TEGDMA)

Dentine etching and bonding
What makes dentine a challenge when it
comes to adhesive bonding: Dentine is a living tissue (50% HA, 30% collagen,
20% fluid)
Tubular nature of dentine (dentinal fluid)
Branching patterns in tubules, may enhance
retention
Smear layer presence
Possible side effects on the pulp
8/3/2019 Lecture 7 & 8- Bonding and Adhesives (Slides)
19/43
19
Dentine etching
1979 etching was done for dentine as well asenamel using 37% phosphoric acid. Researchproved enhanced bonding (total etch technique)
Over etching will remove more mineral than neededand open up tubules, and expose more collagen,making dentine more difficult to coat with bondingagent
Over etching dentine leads to weaker bond andsensitivity
Over drying should be avoided to prevent collapseof collagen and occluding tubules

Another study showed how resin tags from
bonding agents in dentine infiltrated a
surface layer of collagen in demineralized
dentine to form the HYBRID LAYER

Bonding agents
Several years ago, it was believed that bonding to
dentine can be achieved by chemical bonding
between resin and either collagen or mineral content
of dentine. Molecules designed for these purposes
had the following presentation: M-R-X: M is a
methacrylate group, R is a spacer such as
hydrocarbon chain (ensure mobility of M group when
X is immobilized), an X is a functional group that can
bond to calcium in HA (usually an acidic group)

Generations of bonding agents
First generation (1950s): based on silane
coupling agents model. Based on M-R-Xmodel:
M=methacrylate group
R= hydrocarbon group
X= glycerolphosphoric acid dimethacrylate
Success rate was low, due to highpolymerization shrinkage and high CTE in
unfilled resins used in those time

Bonding agents
Second generation ( late 60s early 70s):
similar concept to first generation agents.Low success rate. Attempts were made to
deal with the smear layer
Third generation agents: same as theprevious generation, however attempts were
made to modify or remove the smear layerwhich consists of:

conditioned for 15 seconds. Rinsing with water follows,then gentle drying without desiccating dentine to preventcollapse of collagen fibers
Rinse to remove etchant and demineralized debris
Dry to ensure enamel is etched Slightly moisten dentine
Absorb excess water with cotton
Apply hydrophilic primer (contains resin that polymerizes
within collagen and a solvent that evaporates to ensuredrying of tooth surface).
Apply adhesive (bonding resin) then cure

Measurements of bond strength
Tests used:

Data were variable due to variability of tooth
surface, and different testing methods
Microtensile and microshear bond strength: less
variability.
