Influence of different photoinitiators on the resistance of union in bovine dentin: Experimental and microscopic study

2020 
Background To evaluate in vitro the influence of photoinitiators on the microtensile strength of adhesive systems and composite resins in bovine dentin. Material and Methods Forty dentin obtained from bovine teeth were randomly distributed in four groups (n = 10) according to the different adhesive systems and composite resins used: G1 - AAPS + VAPS (Ambar APS + Vittra APS); G2- AAPS + O (Ambar APS + Opallis); G3 - A + VAPS (Ambar + Vittra APS) and G4 - A + O (Ambar + Opallis). After restoration with the composite, the samples were sectioned to obtain toothpicks that were subjected to the microtensile and nanofiltration test (1.0 mm/min). Results The Kruskal-Wallis test did not show significant differences between the groups (p<0.05). The values in MPa were: AAPS + VAPS - 19.56 MPa; AAPS + O - 19.77 MPa; A + VAPS - 17.78 MPa; A + O - 22.44 MPa. The result of the Mann-Whitney test showed no significant differences depending on the adhesive (Ambar Universal- 19.11 MPa, Ambar APS Universal- 21.70 MPa) and the composite resin used (Vittra APS- 18.75 MPa, Opallis - 23.75 MPa). The AAPS + VAPS and AAPS + O groups showed intense silver nitrate infiltration. The A + APS group showed a moderate infiltration and the A + O group had a mild infiltration in the adhesive system/dentin interface. Conclusions The use of different photoinitiators in the composition of adhesive systems and restorative composites did not affect their bond strength values and the presence of water in the solvent of the APS photoinitiator system had a negative influence, increasing the degree of infiltration in the hybrid layer when compared to the camphorquinone photoinitiator. Key words:Dentin, adhesive systems, composite resin, photoinitiators, tensile strength, nano-infiltration.
