    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: To characterize resin-dentin bond structures of three adhesive resin systems using fractographic analysis to measure the area of failure at the fractured surface. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Flat dentin surfaces were ground perpendicular to the long axis of the tooth. The prepared dentin surfaces were treated by one of three adhesive resin systems (Mac Bond II, One-Step, and Single Bond). The samples were sectioned perpendicular to the adhesive interface to produce a square bar-shaped specimen (adhesive area: 0.9 mm2) using a diamond saw. A micro-tensile test was then conducted at a crosshead speed of 1.0 mm/min. The mean tensile bond strengths were statistically compared using one-way ANOVA and Fisher's PLSD test (P< 0.05). The fractured surfaces of all specimens were examined using SEM and the area of failure was measured using an image analyzer on SEM microphotographs. RESULTS: No significant differences in tensile bond strength were observed between Single Bond (62.1+/-18.2 MPa) and One-Step (53.8+/-13.1 MPa) (P > 0.05). However, the bond strength of Mac Bond II (36.5+/-13.7 MPa) was significantly lower than that of One-Step or Single Bond (P< 0.05). At the fractured surface, except for the cohesive failure of the bonding resin and resin-based composite, different failure patterns were observed for each resin system as follows: the failure of the hybrid layer and demineralized dentin was observed in the two wet bonding systems (One-Step and Single Bond) and of the hybrid layer but not the demineralized dentin in the self-etching primer system (Mac Bond II). The results demonstrated that the integrity of the hybrid layer depends on the adhesive system.
