PG - 19-25 AB - The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of a self-etching primer and a non-rinse conditioner with the effect of a conventional adhesive system on the penetration depth in dentin of human teeth, using scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). Fifteen human third molar teeth were sectioned into 2 pieces. All pieces were flattened with grade 600 to 1200 silicon carbide paper and divided into 6 groups: group 1 - Prime & Bond NT (NT), negative control; group 2 - 37% phosphoric acid + Prime & Bond NT (PANT), positive control; group 3 - Non-rinse Conditioner (NRC) + Prime & Bond NT (NRCNT); group 4 - NRC + Prime & Bond 2.1 (NRCPB); group 5 - NRC + Scotchbond MP (NRCSB); group 6 - Prompt L-Pop (PLP). All teeth were covered with Dyract AP. The tooth fragments were decalcified, and its resin replicas were evaluated by SEM by three previously standardized examiners. The penetration was scored from 0 (no penetration) to 3 (maximum penetration). The Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests (p<0.05) showed three statistically homogeneous groups: (NT, NRCPB, NRCSB and PLP), (NRCNT) and [PANT]. The authors concluded that the self-etching primer and the non-rinse conditioner provide a lower penetration depth in human tooth dentin than the conventional adhesive system.
