Five-year clinical performance of the dentine Deproteinization Technique in non-carious cervical lesions

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the 5-year clinical performance of composite restorations of non-carious cervical lesions (NCCL) using a total-etch adhesive system with or without collagen removal with 10% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl).Methods: In this study randomized controlled split-mouth clinical trial, one-hundred and thirty-eight NCCL were restored into 30 patients. Each patient received at least one pair of composite restorations (Filtek A110/3M ESPE), bonded either with 2 techniques: Conventional Technique - acid etching with 37% phosphoric acid + Prime & Bond NT (Denstply DeTrey); Deproteinization Technique - acid etching with 37% phosphoric acid + 10% NaOCl for 1 min + Prime & Bond NT. The two techniques were evaluated using the United States Public Health Service (USPHS) criteria at baseline, 18 months, 3 and 5 years. After five years, one-hundred and six restorations were evaluated in 24 patients. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test (p < 0.05).Results: There were no statistically significant differences between the two techniques regarding the evaluated parameters (p > 0.05).Conclusion: After 5 years, the application of 10% NaOCl deproteinization on etched dentine did not affect the clinical performance of composite restorations placed in NCCL when compared to the conventional total-etch technique.Clinical significance: Clinical studies evaluating the performance of the Deproteinization Technique are scarce. In this study, this technique showed similar clinical performance at the end of 5 years when compared to a conventional total-etch technique. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Effects of dentin collagen removal on microleakage of bonded restorations

Purpose: To evaluate the effects of removing dentin collagen exposed by acid etching on the microleakage of bonded restorations with and without flowable composite application and submitted to thermocycling and long-term water storage. Materials and Methods: Standardized Class V cavities were prepared in 180 bovine incisors. They were randomly assigned to three groups according to the adhesive technique used. Conventional group (C): Single Bond was applied according to the manufacturer's instructions and Z250 composite was placed. Hypochlorite group (H): After acid etching a 10% NaOCl aqueous solution was applied for 1 min, then Single Bond and Z250 were applied. Hypochlorite and Flowable group (HF): Similar to group H, but following adhesive application, a thin layer of Natural Flow flowable composite was applied before the Z250. Each group was divided into three subgroups (0, 6, 12), which remained immersed in distilled water for 24 h or 6 or 12 months and underwent 500, 1500 or 2500 thermal cycles, respectively. At the end of each storage time, the specimes were stained with silver nitrate, decalcified, immersed in methyl salicylate for clearing and observed under a stereomicroscope to determine microleakage (scores 0 to 4). The data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis and the Multiple Comparison Tests (α = 0.05). Results: After 12 months, every group showed significant increases in microleakage. There was no significant difference between Groups H and HF for the three different periods of time, but they showed statistically less microleakage than Group C. Conclusion: The removal of dentinal collagen reduced the marginal microleakage when compared to the conventional technique. The use of the flowable composite did not produce significant effects. No technique was completely effective in preventing microleakage.

Longitudinal bond strength evaluation using the deproteinized dentin technique

This study evaluated bond strength to dentin as a result of storage time for conventional adhesive systems (with or without collagen) that had been deproteinized with 10% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). For this study, 72 human molars were sectioned in a mesiodistal axial plane and embedded in acrylic resin; at that point, the vestibular and lingual surfaces were worn down with abrasive paper. Acid etching was performed for 15 seconds (using 37% phosphoric acid) and the specimens were divided into 12 groups (n = 6), depending on the adhesive system used, the dentin treatment performed, and the length of evaluation (24 hours or six months). A resin composite was inserted over the prepared area with the aid of a metal matrix. Following a mechanical shear test, fractured surfaces were analyzed by stereomicroscope and the data were submitted to ANOVA and Tukey's test. It was concluded that the dentin deproteinization treatment with 10% NaOCI improved the bond strength in five of the six groups. The bond strength after 24 hours was significantly higher than the bond strength measured after six months. Of the three adhesive systems tested in this study, DenTASTIC UNO demonstrated the lowest bond strength.
