Effect of phytic acid on bond strength and interfacial integrity of universal adhesive to deep dentin
Abstract This study investigated the effect of phytic acid (IP6) in different concentrations and application times on microtensile bond strength (µTBS) and interfacial integrity of universal adhesive to deep dentin. Flat deep dentin surfaces of 48 human molars were either etched with 37% phosphoric acid (PA) for 15 sec (control); or received no acid treatment and universal adhesive was applied directly in a self-etch mode (SE); or divided according to IP6 concentration (C) into two main groups: C1, 0.5%, and C2, 1%. Specimens of IP6 groups were further subdivided into three subgroups according to application time of IP6 (T) where; T1, 15 sec; T2, 30 sec and T3, 60 sec. Single Bond Universal Adhesive was then applied and resin composite blocks were built-up. Forty Specimens were then sectioned to produce resin/dentin beams that were used for µTBS testing using a universal testing machine. The remaining eight specimens were sectioned into slabs that were immersed into ammonical silver nitrate solution and nanoleakage was observed using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The results showed that the application of IP6 in 0.5% and 1% produced significantly higher µTBS and less nanoleakage compared to PA and SE groups. Also, the application of IP6 for 60 sec recorded the highest µTBS and the lowest nanoleakage followed by 30 sec, and 15 sec respectively. Therefore, conditioning of deep dentin with IP6 enhances µTBS and interfacial integrity of universal adhesive to deep dentin in comparison to PA etching or using the universal adhesive in SE mode.
