RESUMEN

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of proanthocyanidin (PA) and chlorhexidine (CHX) on the bond strength (BS), failure pattern, and resin-dentin interface morphology of the endodontic sealers EndoREZ and AH Plus after 24 h and 6 months of water storage. A total of 120 prepared bovine roots were divided into six groups: AH Plus, CHX+AH Plus, PA+AH Plus, EndoREZ, CHX+EndoREZ, and PA+EndoREZ. Dentin was treated for 1 or 5 min with 2% CHX or 15% PA, respectively. Roots were filled and stored in water for 24 h or 6 months (n = 10). Root slices were subjected to push-out test and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Data were compared using two-way ANOVA and student's t-test (α = 5%). BS decreased over time for AH Plus and untreated EndoREZ (p < 0.05). At 24 h, AH Plus had higher BS than EndoREZ (p < 0.001), with no differences among treatments for both sealers (p > 0.05). At 6 months, EndoREZ had higher BS values for CHX and PA than control (p < 0.05). AH Plus had higher BS than EndoREZ (p < 0.001), while with CHX or PA, similar BS was observed in both sealers (p > 0.05). Cohesive and mixed failures were observed in all groups. SEM revealed sealer tags in the root dentin. In conclusion, BS decreased with time and AH Plus had higher BS than EndoREZ in untreated dentin; however, CHX or PA enhanced long-term BS of EndoREZ. Overall, dentin treatment affected failure pattern and resin-dentin interface morphology, particularly for EndoREZ.

RESUMEN

Abstract This study evaluated the effect of restorative protocol with sodium ascorbate on the shear bond strength (SBS) of a universal adhesive to intracoronal bleached dentin. One hundred-and-twenty bovine dentin fragments were randomly divided into 12 groups (n=10), according to the bleaching procedure (unbleached and bleached) and restorative protocol (no treatment, 10% sodium ascorbate -10SA, 35% sodium ascorbate -35SA and two-step etch-and-rinse -ER or one-step self-etch -SE Scotchbond universal adhesive approaches). Four whitening sessions were performed using 35% hydrogen peroxide. The samples from control groups were kept in relative humidity at 37 °C. Immediately after bleaching procedures, the assigned antioxidant solution was applied on dentin and restorative procedures were performed following either the ER or the SE approach. After 24 h, the specimens were subjected to SBS test. Data (MPa) were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey's test (?=0.05). Lower SBS values were found for bleached specimens (8.54 MPa) compared with those unbleached (12.13 MPa) (p<0.05). The bond strength of the sodium ascorbate-treated groups was higher than those untreated, regardless of the strategy employed (p<0.05). Groups restored without sodium ascorbate showed lower bond strength values for both ER (8.32 MPa) and SE (8.28 MPa) adhesive strategies. The group treated with 10SA submitted to ER approach (10.14 MPa) was similar to untreated groups (p>0.05). It may be concluded that bond strength of composite resin to intracoronal dentin was affected by restorative protocol and reduced by bleaching.

Resumo Este estudo avaliou o efeito do protocolo restaurador empregando ascorbato de sódio na resistência ao cisalhamento do adesivo universal à dentina intracoronária clareada. Cento e vinte fragmentos de dentina bovina foram aleatoriamente divididos em doze grupos (n=10), de acordo com o procedimento clareador (clareados e não clareados) e protocolo restaurador (sem tratamento, ascorbato de sódio 10% (10AS), ascorbato de sódio (35AS) e estratégia de condicionamento total de dois passos (ER) ou estratégia autocondicionante de um passo (SE) com o sistema adesivo Scotchbond universal. Quatro sessões de clareamento foram realizadas empregando peróxido de hidrogênio a 35%. Os espécimes do grupo controle foram mantidos em umidade relativa a 37 °C. Imediatamente após os procedimentos de clareamento, as soluções antioxidantes selecionadas foram empregadas na dentina e os procedimentos restauradores foram realizados seguindo as estratégias ER ou SE. Após 24 h, os espécimes foram submetidos ao teste de resistência ao cisalhamento. Os dados (MPa) foram analisados pela ANOVA e teste de Tukey (?=0,05). Os menores valores de resistência ao cisalhamento foram encontrados para os espécimes clareados (8,54 MPa) comparados com aqueles não clareados (12,13 MPa) (p<0,05). A resistência de união dos grupos tratados com ascorbato de sódio foi maior que aqueles não tratados (p<0,05), independentemente da estratégia empregada. Grupos restaurados sem ascorbato de sódio demonstraram menores valores de resistência de união para ambas as estratégias adesivas ER (8,32 MPa) e SE (8,28 MPa) (p<0,05). O grupo tratado com ascorbato de sódio a 10% submetido à estratégia ER (10,14 MPa) foi similar ao não tratado (p>0,05). Pode ser concluído que a resistência de união da resina composta à dentina intracoronária foi afetada pelo protocolo restaurador e reduzida pelo clareamento.
