Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of saliva contamination on bond strength of different resin cements to coronal dentin. Method: Extracted carious-free 36 human molar teeth were selected and 1/3 occlusal triad were cut flat to get a dentin surface. Five different resin cements (Fujicem Evolve, RelyX U200, G-Cem Veneer, Panavia V5, Panavia F 2.0) were used. Teeth were divided into two subgroups according to artificial saliva contamination and six subgroups surface treatment. In each group, 15 sticks were obtained with a low-speed diamond saw and their bond strength was calculated as MPa by measuring with a microtensile bond strength tester. Data were analyzed with analyses of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey test was performed to identify significant differences (p=0.05). Results: The lowest bond strength values obtained in Fujicem Evolve gruop (0.97 MPa) while, the highest bond strength value was recorded in the non-contaminated Panavia V5 gruop (23.39 MPa). The decrease bond strength values of the Fujicem Evolve, RelyX U 200 (Total Etch) and Panavia V5 groups as a result of saliva contamination was statistically significant. (p<0,05). Conclusion: This study shows that saliva contamination may affect the bond strength depends on types of resin cements. In addition, there may be differences in bond strength between resin cements.

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, farklı rezin simanların koronal dentine bağlanma dayanımlarında tükürük kontaminasyonunun etkisini incelemektir. Yöntem: Çürüksüz 36 adet insan molar dişi seçilmiş ve dişlerin 1/3 oklüzal üçlüsü kesilerek dentin yüzeyi açığa çıkarılmıştır. Çalışmada beş farklı rezin siman (Fujicem Evolve, RelyX U200, G-Cem Veneer, Panavia V5, Panavia F 2.0) kullanılmıştır. Dişler yapay tükürük kontaminasyonuna göre iki ve uygulama şekillerine göre altı alt gruba ayrılmıştır. Her grupta 15 adet çubuk hassas kesme cihazı ile elde edilmiş ve bağlanma dayanımları mikrogerilim bağlanma test cihazı ile ölçülerek MPa olarak hesaplanmıştır. Veriler varyans analizi (ANOVA) ile analiz edildi ve Tukey testi anlamlı farklılıkları tespit etmek için kullanıldı (p=0.05). Bulgular: En düşük bağlanma dayanımı tükürükle kontamine Fujicem Evolve grubnda (0,97 MPa) en yüksek bağlanma dayanım değerini ise kontamine edilmemiş Panavia V5 grubunda (23,39 MPa) bulunmuştur. Fujicem Evolve, RelyX U 200 (Total Etch) ve Panavia V5 grubunda tükürük kontaminasyonu sonucu bağlanma dayanım değerlerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir azalama tespit edilmiştir (p<0,05). Sonuç: Tükürük kontaminasyonunun rezin simanlar için bağlanma dayanımında rezin simana bağlı olarak etkili olduğu ve rezin simanların kendi aralarında bağlanma dayanımları arasında farklılıklar olabileceği ortaya konulmuştur.
