Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the influence of dental adhesive color on the chromatic stability and fluorescence intensity of composite resin restorations of different thicknesses. Ninety bovine enamel samples were obtained and restored with resin composite varying thicknesses of restorative material and enamel (1.0 mm enamel and 1.0 mm composite; 1.5 mm enamel and 0.5 mm composite; 0.5 mm enamel and 1.5 mm composite). The restorations were made of composite resin (Opallis E-bleach H) using different types of dental adhesives: Ambar, Ambar APS, and Single Bond Universal (n=10). The samples were subjected to color measurement tests in a spectrophotometer using CIEDE2000 and fluorescence intensity measurements before and after aging in a red wine coloring solution. Data were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Tukey's test (α = 0.05). There were no statistically significant changes in color stability or fluorescence intensity for restorations made of different materials or thicknesses (p>0.05). Single Bond Universal showed greater color stability at 0.5 mm thickness (ΔE00 = 4.4 ± 1.6) compared to other thicknesses of the same material (p=0.003), as well as a greater difference in fluorescence intensity after aging at 1.5 mm thickness (-414.9 ± 103.8) compared to other materials (p=0.0002). Overall, it was concluded that the different adhesive systems did not influence the color stability and fluorescence of restorations of different thicknesses. 10 1 0 (1. 1. 15 5 05 0. composite. . composite) Opallis Ebleach E bleach H adhesives APS n=10. n10 n n=10 (n=10) CIEDE CIEDE200 solution ANOVA (ANOVA Tukeys Tukey s α 0.05. 005 0.05 0.05) p>0.05. p005 p p>0.05 (p>0.05) ΔE00 ΔE (ΔE0 44 4 4. 1.6 16 6 p=0.003, p0003 p=0.003 , 003 (p=0.003) 414.9 4149 414 9 (-414. 103.8 1038 103 8 p=0.0002. p00002 p=0.0002 0002 (p=0.0002) Overall (1 n1 n=1 (n=10 CIEDE20 00 0.0 p00 p>0.0 (p>0.05 ΔE0 (ΔE p000 p=0.00 (p=0.003 414. 41 (-414 103. p0000 p=0.000 000 (p=0.0002 ( n= (n=1 CIEDE2 p0 p>0.

Resumo O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a influência da cor do adesivo dental na estabilidade cromática e intensidade de fluorescência das restaurações de resina composta de diferentes espessuras. Foram obtidos noventa amostras de esmalte bovino que foram restaurados com resina composta, variando a espessura do material restaurador e do esmalte (1,0 mm de esmalte e 1,0 mm de compósito; 1,5 mm de esmalte e 0,5 mm de compósito; 0,5 mm de esmalte e 1,5 mm de compósito). As restaurações foram feitas de resina composta (Opallis E-bleach H) utilizando diferentes tipos de adesivos odontológicos: Ambar, Ambar APS, e Single Bond Universal (n=10). As amostras foram submetidas a testes de medição de cor em um espectrofotômetro usando CIEDE2000 e medições de intensidade de fluorescência antes e depois do envelhecimento em uma solução de coloração de vinho tinto. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância (ANOVA) e ao teste de Tukey (α = 0,05). Não houve mudanças estatisticamente significativas na estabilidade da cor ou intensidade de fluorescência para restaurações feitas de diferentes materiais ou espessuras (p>0,05). O Single Bond Universal mostrou maior estabilidade de cor a 0,5 mm de espessura (ΔE00 = 4,4 ± 1,6) em comparação com outras espessuras do mesmo material (p=0,03), bem como uma maior diferença na intensidade de fluorescência após o envelhecimento a 1,5 mm de espessura (-414,9 ± 103,8) em comparação com outros materiais (p=0,0002). Em geral, concluiu-se que os diferentes sistemas adesivos não influenciaram a estabilidade de cor e a intensidade de fluorescência das restaurações de diferentes espessuras. 10 1 0 (1, 1, compósito 15 5 05 0, compósito. . compósito) Opallis Ebleach E bleach H odontológicos APS n=10. n10 n n=10 (n=10) CIEDE CIEDE200 tinto ANOVA (ANOVA α 0,05. 005 0,05 0,05) p>0,05. p005 p p>0,05 (p>0,05) ΔE00 ΔE (ΔE0 44 4 4, 1,6 16 6 p=0,03, p003 p=0,03 , 03 (p=0,03) 414,9 4149 414 9 (-414, 103,8 1038 103 8 p=0,0002. p00002 p=0,0002 0002 (p=0,0002) geral concluiuse concluiu se (1 n1 n=1 (n=10 CIEDE20 00 0,0 p00 p>0,0 (p>0,05 ΔE0 (ΔE p=0,0 (p=0,03 414, 41 (-414 103, p0000 p=0,000 000 (p=0,0002 ( n= (n=1 CIEDE2 p0 p>0, (p>0,0 p=0, (p=0,0 (-41 p000 p=0,00 (p=0,000 (n= p>0 (p>0, p=0 (p=0, (-4 (p=0,00 (n p> (p>0 p= (p=0 (- (p> (p= (p

Abstract This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the effects of different luting protocols on the thickness of luting interface of ceramic laminate veneers. Thirty-six lithium disilicate blocks (7 × 8 × 0.6 mm) were cemented onto bovine enamel. They were divided into 6 groups based on the luting protocol (no previous photoactivation of the dental adhesive; previous activation of the dental adhesive only on enamel surface; and previous photoactivation of the dental adhesive on both the enamel surface and inner surface of ceramic laminate) and the luting materials used (Single Bond Universal/RelyX Veneer and Tetric N Bond/Variolink Veneer). The luting interface thickness of ceramic laminate veneers was evaluated using a laser scanning confocal microscope (n = 6). The luting interface measurements were analyzed using 2-way ANOVA and the Tukey least significant difference test (α = 0.05). Prior activation of the adhesive on the dental enamel and inside the ceramic laminate exhibited higher luting interface thickness than that with no prior photoactivation of both luting materials (p < 0.05). Specimens cemented with Tetric N Bond/Variolink Veneer, submitted for prior photoactivation of the adhesive on the dental enamel and on both dental enamel and inner surface of ceramic, exhibited lower luting interface thickness than those luted with Single Bond Universal/RelyX Veneer (p < 0.05). The prior photoactivation of dental adhesives influenced the thickness of luting interface in laminate restorations. Tetric N Bond/Variolink Veneer yielded more satisfactory results than Single Bond Universal/RelyX Veneer when the adhesive was light activated.
