INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
 The current trends in the development of
adhesives attempts to simplify bonding steps and
make them user friendly.Advances in different
scientific disciplines, will enrich the pool from
which ideas may be drawn in designing future
adhesives .
 It is probably on the molecule level that we
see the greatest expansion of horizons and
advances in biomimetics . Using the concept of
controlled release,future adhesives may contain
flourescent biosensitizers that can detect pH
changes .

HISTORICAL OVERVIEWHISTORICAL OVERVIEW
 Research into bonding agents for
attachment of resins to tooth structure
was started in the early 1950s.
•Ist attempt to develop an adhesion system for
bonding acrylic resins to tooth structure was
made by Haggers ,a swiss chemist working for
the amalgamated dental company in London and
Zurich in 1947.

1955 Buonocore conducted experiments on
enamel surfaces employing a 30 sec
treatment of 85% phosphoric acid to achieve
a simple acid decalcification and found
tremendous increase in surface area due to
acid etching action by exposing the organic
frame work of enamel

In 1955 Buonocore and Brudevold
selected sevriton as one material that
seemed ideally suited for chemical
combination with constituents of
dentin but the role of methacrylic
acid in establishing adhesion could not
be continued

 Further paper by Buonocore and Quigley in
1958 ,confirmed the earlier work of KRAMER and
MC LEAN .
 Hagger and mclean work remained dormant for a
long period .
 In 1961 work shop on adhesive restorative dental
materials ,which was organized by Philips and
which provide considerable impeus to future
research .

EPOXY RESINSEPOXY RESINS
 Castain and Dr.Trey Freres ,Zurich ,made a major
break through in polymer chemistry in 1937 with
the invention of of epoxy resins made by
condensation alkaline oxides with anhydrides of
polybasic acids .
 Epoxy resigns has formed the basis for most of
the current composite resins in which vinyl groups
were attached to the end groups of epoxy resin
,converting epoxy resign to dimethacrylate

CURRENT RESIN DEVELOPMENTCURRENT RESIN DEVELOPMENT
 In 1958 the first low shrinkag resin was produced
by schmitt and purrman in germany. It was a low
viscosiy epimine resins and marketed under trade
name pcadurit .
 In 1959 Bowen filed his first paten in the united
states on his famous bis-GMA resin ,based on he
epoxy molecule and produced a dental restorative
material containing vinyl silane treated fused silica

 Recently urethane dimethacrylate
developed by knigh e tal for industrial
use.later Loster and Walker made urethane
dimethacrylate resin for use in resin -
composite dental material.
 Advantages of these new resins are ,higher
molecular weigh ,low viscosiy ,certain
degree of toughness in the urethane
moiety ,together with less staining bis-
GMA

POLYELECTROLYTE CEMENTS ANDPOLYELECTROLYTE CEMENTS AND
CHEMICAL ADHESIONCHEMICAL ADHESION
 It is Another advancement in bonding restorative
materials to tooth structure
 Long term adhesion possible with out any
preparation of tooth surface .
Ian 1968 smith described about dental cements in
which Zno powder could be reacted with poly
acrylic acid.
Zinc polycarboxylate cement were the first truly
adhesive cements that could form chemical bonds
with tooth structure,a major advance in dental
adhesive chemistry .

 Research in this field continoues and lead
to production of first chemically adhesive
tooth –colored restorative .
 The GIC were initially described by Wilson
and kent in 1971-it became anoher land
mark in adhesive dentistry.

DEFINATIONSDEFINATIONS
 Adhesion
"The state in which two surfaces are held
together by interfacial forces which may consist of
valence forces /interlocking forces or both.
 Adhesive
“Is a material frequently a viscous fluid that
joins two surfaces together solidifies and
therefore is able to transfer a load from one
surface to the other.”
Adherend
 “ Material to which an adhesive applied is called
Adherend “

MECHANISMS OF ADHESIONMECHANISMS OF ADHESION
Mechanical adhesion
 Adsorption adhesion
 Electrostatic adhesion
 Diffusion adhesion

 Mechanical:Interlocking of adhesive with
irregularities in the surface of the
adherend

 Adsorption is nothing but Chemical
bonding between the adhesive and
adherend
 chemical bonding is of 2 types:
1.Primary chemical bonding
1. 2.Secondary chemical bonding
Adsorption adhesion

Electrostatic: There is an electrical
double layer at the interface of a
metal and polymer that is part of the
total adhesive system

Diffusion: Interlocking between mobile
molecules, such as the adhesion of two
polymers through diffusion of polymer
chain ends across an interface

REQUIREMENT FOR ADHESIVEREQUIREMENT FOR ADHESIVE
SYSTEMSYSTEM
 Wetting: An adhesive must give good
wetting of the adherend.
 Thickness: Too great thickness can lead to
poor bond strength.
 Viscosity: Adhesive should have a suitable
viscosity to enable it to flow readily over
the surface of adherend.
 Strength: of the set adhesive must be
taken into consideration.
 Dimensional Stability: The setting time of
the adhesive should occur without
excessive dimensional changes i.e. little
expansion or contraction

COMPONENTS OF A COMPOSITECOMPONENTS OF A COMPOSITE
RESINRESIN
 Dental composite resins are complex materials :
1. organic resin component that forms matrix .
2. Inorganic filler.
3. coupling (interfacial) agent, to unite the resin
with the filler .
4. initiator system, to activate the setting
mechanism .
5. stabilisers (inhibitors ).
6. pigments .

ORGANIC RESIN COMPONENTORGANIC RESIN COMPONENT
 Composite resins vary in their resin component but
all the variations are diacrylates.
 Highviscosity aromatic monomer:bis-GMA.
 The lengthy diacrylate chains of this monomer
minimise the polymerisation contraction.
• Some systems contain oligomeric compounds based
on urethane dimethacrylate to replace bis-GMA
either partially or completely..

 Low-viscosity monomers:
 TEGDMA , EGDMA and HEMA to facilitate
clinical handling.
 There must be carbon-carbon double bonds
at each end of the monomer chain to allow
polymerisation and cross-linking.

Silica used generallySilica used generally
Crystalline form
Hard
Stronger
Difficult to
finish
and polish.
Eg: crystobalite
Tridymite
Quartz.
Non-crystalline
Most popular
fillers.
Eg:silicate glass
made of Zn,Yt,Ba.

MACRO FILLERSMACRO FILLERS
 Macrofiller – Made of glass, quartz or ceramic
by crushing, grinding and sieving to achieve
splinter-shaped particles.
 The average size -formulations is 5-30 um.

MICRO FILLER PARTICLESMICRO FILLER PARTICLES
 Microfiller particles are amorphous silica
(Si02)
average diameter 0.0411-m
 prepared by hydrolysis and precipitation.
 They are radiolucent

HYBRIDSHYBRIDS
• In thehybrid materials, the average size is
0.5-8I1-m.
 Barium (Ba), strontium (Sr) or lanthanum
(La) glasses are usually included to provide
radiopacity

COUPLING AGENTCOUPLING AGENT
 coupling agent - silane coupling agents
 Composition:
y-methacryloxyproptrimethoxysilane.
 silane coupling affects: the durability of the
composite resin , loss of the coupling releases
particles and leads to surface breakdown.
 The filler particles are treated with a silane
coupling agent to produce a bond between the
particles and the resin matrix

Organ laser light for rapid photo
polymerization of resin composites-
jco 2000.
a statistically lower overall bond
failure rate was found for organ
laser(2.5%) curing ,when compared
with conventional light curing (5.7%)

Plasma arc versus halogen light –curing of
adhesive precoated orthodontic brackes:A
12-month clinical sudy of bond failures.-AJO
DO 2004 Vittorio cacca festa e tal
Plasma arc lights can be considered an
advantageous alternative to conventional
light curing ,because they enable the
clinician to reduce the curing time of
adhesive precoated orthodontic brackets
with significantly affecting the bond failure
rate

 Degree of conversion of 2 lingual retainer
adhesives cured with different light
sources-EJO 2005BY Serdar Usumez
The results suggest that a similar or
higher DC than the control values could be
achieved in 6-9 sec by plasma arc curing,in
10-15 second by fast halogen curing,or in
20 sec by LED curing

(CLASSIFICATION OF COMPOSITE(CLASSIFICATION OF COMPOSITE
RESINSRESINS
Lutz and Phillips (1983),classification based
on the filler particle size and distribution.
 is simple and logical

TypeType 1.1. Macrofilled compositeMacrofilled composite
resinresin
This type contains only macrofiller particles
and is usually referred to as 'conventional'
or 'traditional'.
 Largely because of the particle size, this
type exhibits a pattern of unacceptable
wear, both of itself and of the opposing
tooth.

TypeType 2.2. Microjilled composite resinMicrojilled composite resin
The fillers in these composites are
amorphous silica particles of 0.0411-m
average diameter.
 Four different particle groupings have been
developed to maximise the filler loading
while retaining acceptable clinical handling

Homogeneous - consists of directly
admixed microfillerparticles.
Splintered prepolymerised particles-
Size of prepolymerised particles or
filler blocks is 80l1micrinm in size.
Prepolymerised particle reduce
polymeristion contraction

Spherical prepolymerised particles.
Particles of selected size allow optimal
packing together.
 Agglomerated microfiller complexes.
The Si02 microfiller particles are
sintered to a porous mass and then ground
to form coarse particles of agglomerated
Si02 up to 2511-m in size. These are
incorporated, with additional microfiller
particles, into uncured resin.

TypeType 3.3. Hybrid composite resinHybrid composite resin
Also often known as 'small-particle
composites'.
 combination of macrofiller particles with a
proportion of microfiller particles.
 probably the most commonly used
composite resins.
The main variation is in the proportion and
distribution of the various particles of
different sizes

Visible-light-activated systemsVisible-light-activated systems
 Single paste visible light activated systems.
 2 component initiator system-di ketone and
tertiary amine.
 Di ketone is usually 0.2 -0.7% camphoroquinone.
absorbs the radiant energy or wavelength of
approximately 470 nm (blue light).
Activation of di ketone combines with the
amine to form a complex that breaks down to
release free radicals which then initiate
polymerization of the resin.

ENAMEL BONDING AGENTSENAMEL BONDING AGENTS
 Consists of unfilled liquid acrylic monomer
placed on acid etched enamel.
 micromechanical retention by resin tag formation
on resin enamel interface.
 Micro tags and macro tags are basis for micro
mechanical retention.
 Micro tags are more important because of their
large number and great surface of contact.
 On other side bonding agent co-polymerises with
matrix phase of dental composite

DENTIN BONDING AGENTSDENTIN BONDING AGENTS

GENERATIONS OF BONDINGGENERATIONS OF BONDING
AGENTSAGENTS
 Generations are nothing but evolution of bonding
agents from 1955 to 2003.
 There are 7 generations.
 I - GENERATION Buonocore(1956) introduced.
 Resin containing glycerophosphoric acid
dimethacrylate.
 Bowen introduced NPhenyl Glycine &
GlycidylMethacrylate (NPG-GMA)
 Bonding-is by chelation of bonding agent to calcium
of dentine

Drawback:
 Poor dentine bonding .
Enamel bonding is good
 Examples-The first commercial system of
this type (Cervident, SS White).

II - GENERATION (1978)
Bis-GMA (or) HEMA were introduced which are
unfilled resins which causes ionic bonding to the
calcium in dentine.
1. Bonding to smear layerDraw Backs
2.require mechanical preparation

 III - GENERATION
 Principle: Partially removed (or) modified the
smear layer
 Etching opens dentinal tubules and primer META or
BPDM modifies smear layer and attaches to
composites.
 Drawbacks:
 Primer, does not penetrate the smear layer
 Adhesive retention decreases after some time
 Examples
 Mirage bond, Scotch bond 2
 Prisma Universal bond 2 and 3

IV - GENERATION
 Complete removal of smear layer was attempted .
 Total - etch technique. In the total etch -
technique Orthophosphoric acid was used to etch
enamel and dentin, simultaneously for 15 - 20
seconds
 Moist - Dentine Concept. However, in order to
avoid collagen collapse, primer solution is applied
which can infiltrate the exposed collagen network
forming hybrid layer. This is called moist dentin
concept

Hybridization: Replacement of hydroxy-
apatite and water in the surface dentin
with resin
Hybrid: resin in combination with
remaining collagen fibre

 4th generation dentin bonding agents may be again
described as
 Etch (phosphoric acid) + Primer (NTG-GMA, N
tolyglycine -glycidyl methacrylate) + Bond (Bis-
GMAj TEGDMA
 Examples
 All bound-2 (BISCO), Scotch bond
 Multipurpose (3M), Prime and bond

v - GENERATION

enamel and dentin due to adhesive lateral branches
and hybrid layer formation
2. Self etching primers

(phosphoric acid) + PB (PENTA,
methacrylated phosphonates
Examples
One step (BiSCO), Single bond (3M),
Clearfil SE bond (J MORITA).
Opti bond solo (KERR

 VI- GENERATION
VIEtchng was not required at least at the dentinal
interface.
They contained dentin conditioning agent as one of
their components.
Described as EPB(METHACRYLAED PHOSPHATES)
Drawbacks: Multiple components and multiple steps

VII - GENERATION
I-bond.
Etching, priming, bonding all were
combined into one step.
 Shear bond strength not affected-any
type of curing light .
 Similar adhesion to prepared and
unprepared enamel.
 Desensitizers were added.

 Invented -1969 reported in 1971 by WILSON AND
KENT
POWDER ; Flouroalumino silicate glass
Liquid: Poly alkenoic acid (Carboxyl containing acid )

 Setting Reaction: The hydrogen ions of the acid
attack the glass particles in the presence of
water releasing calcium, strontium, and aluminium
ions .
 The metal ions combine with the carboxylic group
of the polyacid to form the polyacid salts matrix
and the glass surface is changed to a silica
hydrogel.
 Advantages
 Fluoride release
 Hydrogel phases
 Moisture tolerance

 Advantages
 Fluoride release
 Hydrogel phases
 Moisture tolerance
 Disadvantages
 Bond strength less than that of composite
Hydrogel phase: Responsible for the uptake and
release of added environmental fluoride from topical
gels, rinses & dentifrices

BONDING TO GOLDBONDING TO GOLD
Until recently, bonding to gold and other
metals was considered difficult.
In the 1980's some adhesives - (Enamelite
500, Goldlink) etc and primers (fusion) -
were designed to allow such bonding.
 However, published reports and clinical
experience do not support their
effectiveness.

Bonding to amalgam restorationsBonding to amalgam restorations
 Micro-etching is essential for bonding to
amalgam and other nonprecious metals.
 Small amalgam restorations no sand
blasting to be done
 Large amalgams should be sandblasted for
about 3 sec to provide an improved surface
for bonding.

Bonding to acrylic and compositeBonding to acrylic and composite
restorationsrestorations
 An acrylic adhesive resin is preferred for
bonding Metal, plastic or ceramic brackets to
acrylic crowns.
The bond strength obtained, with the
addition of new composite to Mature
composite, is substantially less than the
cohesive strength of the Material.

Fluoride releasing adhesivesFluoride releasing adhesives
Fluoride releasing adhesives is a relatively
recent advancement.Fluoride release:
Wiltshire et al have reported on the fluoride
release characteristics of various resins.
Most resins show an immediate release of
fluoride following bonding and thereafter
the levels of release decreases sharply and
levels of off

Clinical comparision of the bond failure
rates between the fluoride releasing and
non- fluoride releasing composite resins-
JCO 2000 CHUN-HIS CHUNG,DMD,MS
This study demonstrates that a
fluoride –exchanging composite resin
such as phase II is clinically enough for
use as an orthodontic bonding.

ConclusionConclusion
The future of adhesive dentistry is bright.The
scope for deepening in this pool is still
tremendous.This will require for more collabaration
between molecular biologists and polymer chemists

Indirect Bonding AdhesiveIndirect Bonding Adhesive
The Sondhi™ Rapid-Set Indirect
Bonding Adhesive is revolutionary
from every angle. This lightly filled
resin cures in half the time (2
minutes vs. 4 minutes) of other
indirect adhesives, while achieving
two thirds of its bond strength within
the first five minutes

 Designed to complement our APC™
Adhesive Coated Appliances, the Sondhi
Rapid-Set Indirect Bonding Adhesive
allows you to take full advantage of the
benefits of indirect bonding. More
accurate bracket placement; less bracket
repositioning; maximization of doctor time;
and compared to direct bonding, decreased
chair time and patient discomfort from
simultaneous bonding of all brackets

From the doctor's angle, it means
less wasted time per patient and less
stress. It also means more control
over bracket placement second molar
to second molar, and a higher level of
precision, accuracy and strength. This
instills added confidence that the
doctor's goal, straight teeth, will be
accomplished.

 From the patient's angle, it means a
faster, more comfortable, more
confident bonding experience. From the
business angle, it means more cost
effective use of doctor time.
Any way you look at it, indirect bonding
is superior with the Sondhi Rapid-Set
Indirect Bonding Adhesive

 For fast orthodontic curing times andthe
convenience of untethered portability, your
best choice today is the Ortholux™ LED
Curing Light from 3M Unitek.
With the Ortholux LED light, there’s no
cord connecting the handpiece to a light
source. There’s no bulky equipment to get
in the way or impede chairside mobility.
And yet, with a small handheld unit, you
have curing times for orthodontic bonds
that are typically twice as fast as www.indiandentalacademy.com

 Advanced LED Technology is the Key
The Ortholux LED curing light uses one
blue LED (Light Emitting Diode) that emits
light in the 430-480 nm range at an
intensity of 1000 mW/cm2
. The light is
optimized specifically for the
polymerization of materials used in
orthodontic bonding. With LED technology,
there is no bulb to lose intensity or wear
out. Heat build-up is minimal, so there is no
need for a fan which uses battery power
and adds weight. Microprocessor-based

 Convenience for You and the Patient
The Ortholux LED light is remarkably easy
to handle and use. The handpiece is
compact, sleek and weighs less than eight
ounces. The light guide rotates 360
degrees, making positioning easy for you,
and quick curing times enhance patient
comfort and shorten chair time.
