(Elsevier Science inc, 2011) Belli, Sema; Cobankara, Funda Kont; Ozcopur, Betul; Eliguzeloglu, Evrim; Eskitascioglu, Gurcan
Introduction: This study examined the hypothesis that the shear-bond strengths of AH Plus (AH) and Hybrid Root Seal (HRS) to root dentin might be optimized by using a powdered dentin-reinforced bonding procedure. Methods: The surfaces of root halves obtained from extracted human premolars were ground (800-grit silicon carbide paper), treated (5.25% NaOCl 17% EDTA for 5 minutes followed by distilled water) and randomly allocated into two groups according to the sealer and then into three subgroups according to bonding procedure. Dentin particles with a maximum size of 25 mu m were incorporated into the adhesive of Clearfil Liner Bond 2V, and groups were created as follows: no adhesive, adhesive alone, and with powdered dentin reinforced adhesive; 3 x 3 mm high buildups were created using sealer and allowed to set (37 degrees C, 100% humidity, 72 hours). Shear tests were performed (1 mm/min). Data were calculated as MPa and analyzed (two-way analysis of variance, Tukey test). Results: A significant difference was found between the groups (P = .000). Adhesive or reinforced adhesive had a negative effect on the shear-bond strength of AH, but they significantly increased the shear-bond strength of HRS (P = .000). HRS showed a similar bond strength with either adhesive alone or adhesive reinforced with powdered dentin. AH group was characterized by mixed failure, whereas the predominant failure type of the HRS group was cohesive failure within the sealer. Conclusions: Reinforcing adhesive resin with powdered dentin may be considered an alternative for optimizing the bonding of methacrylate-based sealers to root dentin and might affect the shear bond strength.

Effect of Cyclic Loading and an Intermediate Material on Microtensile Bond Strengths of a Dual-Cure Resin Cement To Dentin Resin-Coated With All-In Adhesives
(Elsevier Taiwan, 2012) Belli, Sema; Ozcopur, Betul; Yesilyurt, Cemal; Akman, Melek; Breslin, Nicholas; Dorsman, Greg
Background/purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effects of mechanical loading and an intermediate material on microtensile bond-strengths (mu TBSs) of four all-in-one adhesives and a total-etching adhesive system to dentin. Materials and methods: Dentin surfaces of sound human third molars were exposed and treated with Danville Experimental (Danville Materials), G Bond (GC), Clearfil S-3 Bond (Kuraray), AdheSE One (Vivadent), and Prelude total-etch (Danville Materials). Dual-curable resin (Multicore; Vivadent) build-ups were created with and without the use of Prelude Dual/Self Cure Link (Danville Materials). Two subgroups were created (with and without mechanical-loading: 5 x 10(4)[cycles]; 50 N at 0.2 Hz). After storage at 37 degrees C for 1 week, the mu TBS test was performed. Data were calculated (MPa) and statistically analyzed (multivariate analysis of variance and Scheffe's tests). Results: Pre-test failure was observed, and no data were obtained from groups in the absence of Prelude Dual/Self Cure Link, except for the Prelude total-etch group. Prelude total-etch provided significantly higher mu TBSs to dentin than did the other adhesives (P < 0.05). Bond strengths of all tested adhesives were significantly reduced upon application of the loading regimen (P < 0.05). Clearfil S-3 Bond and G Bond provided significantly higher mu TBSs to dentin than AdheSE One and the experimental adhesive (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Mechanical loading significantly decreased the adhesive performance, and Prelude Dual/Self Cure Link increased it for all-in-one adhesives when used with a dual-curable resin.

(Aves Press Ltd, 2017) Alkan, Ozer; Coven, Betul Oktay; Ozcopur, Betul; Kazanci, Fatih; Kaya, Yesim; Aydogan, Cihan; Eskitascioglu, Gurcan
Objective: The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of ozone and prophylactic antimicrobial applications on the shear bond strengths and bond failure interfaces of orthodontic brackets. Methods: Sixty human canine teeth were randomly divided into three groups (n=20), receiving the following treatments: Group I-pumice prophylaxis (Isler Dental, Ankara, Turkey)+37% orthophosphoric acid (Dentsply, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)+Transbond XT primer and adhesive (3M Unitek, Monrovia, USA); Group II-prophylaxis paste (Topex, NJ, USA)+37% orthophosphoric acid (Dentsply, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)+Transbond XT primer and adhesive paste (3M Unitek, Monrovia, USA); and Group III-ozone application (Biozonix GmbH, Munich, Germany)+37% orthophosphoric acid (Dentsply, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)+Transbond XT primer and adhesive (3M Unitek, Monrovia, USA). All specimens were stored at 37 degrees C water for 24 h. Shear bond strength was assessed using a universal testing device (Autograph AGS-X; Shimadzu, Japan). Adhesive remnant index (ARI) scores were obtained through examination of teeth under stereomicroscope at 10x magnification after debonding. Results: Shear bond strengths of orthodontic brackets were 16.10, 18.01, and 19.23 MPa for Groups I, II, and III, respectively. No statistically significant difference in shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets was found among the groups (p=0.273), based on Kruskal-Wallis analysis. Additionally, no significant difference was found in the ARI scores of each group using chi-square analysis (p=0.992). Conclusion: Shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets and ARI scores was not found to be negatively impacted by ozone application.

(Japanese Soc dental Materials devices, 2012) Eliguzeloglu Dalkilic, Evrim; Genc, Ozgur; Ozcopur, Betul; Belli, Sema; Eskitascioglu, Gurcan; Ozcan, Mutlu
This study evaluated the effect of different amounts of dentin powder (DP) mixed in Clearfil SE Bond (CSB) or Single Bond (SB) on adhesion to dentin. Human third molars (n=96) were sectioned to expose the mid-coronal dentin and divided into eight experimental groups (n=12 per group), namely, Group 1: CSB, Group 2: CSB+1.5 mg DP, Group 3: CSB+3 mg DP, Group 4: CSB+4.5 mg DP, Group 5: SB, Group 6: SB+1.5 mg DP, Group 7: SB+3 mg DP, and Group 8: SB+4.5 mg DP. Filtek Z250 composite was bonded onto dentin, and all specimens were subjected to shear bond strength test at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. Highest bond strength was obtained in Groups 1, 2, and 3 (15.1, 13.5, and 16.4 MPa respectively; p>0.05) and the lowest in Groups 6, 7, and 8 (5.5, 5.6, 4 MPa; p>0.05). DP addition, regardless of amount, adversely affected the bond strength of SB. Bond strength of CSB was not affected when 1.5 or 3 rag of DP was added.

(Japanese Soc dental Materials devices, 2013) Bavbek, Andac Barkin; Demir, Erhan; Goktas, Baris; Ozcopur, Betul; Behram, Benin; Eskitascioglu, Gurcan; Ozcan, Mutlu
This study tested whether exhaled humid conditions would affect the adhesion of etch-and-rinse, two-step and one-step self-etch adhesive resins to enamel. Enamel surfaces of human maxillary anterior teeth (N=240, n=20) were exposed to four humid conditions (H1: 63-68%, H2: 73-78%, H3: 93-98%, H4: 36-45% RH) during bonding with Adper Single Bond 2 (SB2), Clearfil SE Bond (CSE) and Adper Easy Bond (AEB). Specimens were stored in distilled water at 37 degrees C for 24 h and tested to failure using micro-shear bond strength (mu SBS) test. Data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (p<0.05). The mu SBS to enamel with SB2, CSE and AEB was not significantly affected by humidity parameters. AEB resulted in significantly lower mu SBS in all conditions. The frequency of adhesive failures was the highest at H2, H3 for SB2, H3 for CSE and H1-4 for AEB indicating that humidity conditions may decrease adhesion quality to enamel.
Which Is Effective on Bond Strength of Resin-Based Sealers: Incorporation of Powdered Dentin To Primer or Adhesive
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015) Akman, Melek; Belli, Sema; Ozcopur, Betul; Eskitascioglu, Guercan
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of adding powdered dentin to primer or adhesive in a self-etch system on the shear bond strength of three resin-based sealers. Seventy-two premolars were sectioned buccolingually, and 144 root halves were divided into three groups according to the sealer used: epoxy resin-based sealer (AH Plus), methacrylate resin-based (RealSeal, Hybrid Root SEAL) n=48. The surfaces were irrigated with 5% NaOCl, 17% EDTA, distilled water for 5min. Four subgroups were created (n=12): control group; Clearfil Liner Bond 2V treated group; powdered dentin added to the primer of Clearfil Liner Bond 2V (40 wt.%); and powdered dentin added to the adhesive of Clearfil Liner Bond 2V (20 wt.%). Dentin powder was prepared. Three mm high buildups with a constant surface area of 3.45mm(2) were created using the sealers and allowed to set (37oC, 100% humid, 72h). The samples were tested to failure for shear bond strength (1mm/min). The data were calculated (MPa) and analyzed using two-way ANOVA, one-way ANOVA, and Tukey HSD tests. Adhesive use decreased the bonding performance of AH Plus (p=0.00). Mean bond strength of the other sealers was found similar to control. Primer or adhesive resin with powdered dentin did not increase the adhesive performance of the self-etch system used. The shear bond strength of RealSeal was significantly increased when powdered dentin was added to primer or adhesive (p=0.00). The effect of adding powdered-dentine to primer or adhesive in a self-etch system on the shear bond strength was sealer-dependent .
