Influence of Different Surface Treatments on Bond Strength of Resin Composite Using the Intrinsic Characterization Technique

Abstract

Surface treatments of composite with phosphoric acid, diamond tip, and aluminum oxide significantly diminished the bond strength between composite and the LCCMs.

Clinical Steps for Restoration of Fractured Anterior Teeth: Color Protocol with Non-VITA Scale

“…The technique of intrinsic characterization of composite resin restorations with stains is routinely used in dental offices. Several manufacturers offer stains that enable individualized and customized composite resin restorations [5]. In the treatment presented, the white stain was used.…”

“…In the treatment presented, the white stain was used. These stains should be applied carefully with a fine brush as demonstrated in this treatment to avoid excess material that can lead to an unsightly appearance or decrease in cohesive strength between the resin increments [5, 8].…”

“…In addition, light-polymerized stains, which are flowable composite resins with low filler content, can be used to characterize occlusal cracks and grooves, darken teeth, or mimic the chromatic characteristics of the tooth as with an incisal opaque halo. They are available in various pigments, including brown, black, blue, and white ocher, to provide a direct restoration with a more natural appearance that is harmonious to the adjacent teeth [5].…”
