Table 1 illustrates the materials used in this study. The self-etch adhesives used were: G-aenial Bond (GB; GC Corporation, Tokyo, Japan), Scotchbond Universal (SU; 3M ESPE Dental Products, St Paul, MN, USA), and Opti-Bond XTR (OX; Kerr Corporation, Orange, CA, USA). The resin composite used for the bonding procedure was Z100 Restorative (3M ESPE Dental Products).

Standardizing Dental Materials for Study

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We aimed to standardize the dental materials and restoration placement procedures for study participants across clinical sites. To be consistent with NECAT, the standard treatment materials were Z100 restorative (3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN) with Optibond bonding agent (Kerr, Orange, CA). Both materials contain bisGMA among other compounds. Similar to many other bisGMA-containing composite restoratives, the composite restorative has been previously shown to release BPA and bisGMA.24 (link),36 (link)–39 If patients needed sealants placed while enrolled in the study, the standard sealant was Embrace (Pulpdent, Watertown, MA), which contains no bisGMA or related compounds. All treatments and materials were used according to manufacturers’ indications. For each dental visit that occurred between the first study-related composite restoration until the patient’s final 6-month urine sample collection, we collected data on the type of treatments received, tooth surfaces treated, rubber dam usage, and manufacturers/brands of materials used. Because participants may have had composites and sealants already in place prior to the first study-related treatment, the dentist recorded the number of existing restored or sealed surfaces and material types present at baseline.

Comparing Performance of Universal Adhesives

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Four universal adhesives were used in this study: (i) Adhese Universal (AU, Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein), (ii) All-Bond Universal (AB, Bisco, Schaumburg, IL, USA), (iii) G-Premio Bond (GB, GC, Tokyo, Japan), and (iv) Scotchbond Universal Adhesive (SU, 3M Oral Care). Ultra-Etch (Ultradent, South Jordan, UT, USA) was used as a 35% phosphoric acid pre-etching agent and Z100 Restorative (3M Oral Care) as the resin composite employed to make specimens. Table 1 lists the tested materials and their lot numbers and components.

Adhesive Bonding Performance Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Six adhesives were used in this study (Table 1): four universal adhesives [1) Adhese Universal (AU, Ivoclar Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein), 2) Clearfil Universal Bond (CU, Kuraray Noritake Dental), 3) G-Premio Bond (GP, GC, Tokyo, Japan), and 4) Scotchbond Universal (SU, 3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA)], and three two-step self-etch adhesives [1) Clearfil SE Bond (CS), 2) Clearfil SE Bond 2 (CS2), and 3) OptiBond XTR (OX)]. Ultra-Etch (Ultradent Products, South Jordan, UT, USA) was used as a 35% phosphoric acid etching agent, and Z100 Restorative (3M ESPE) was used as the resin composite for the bonding procedures.

Dentin Surface Etching and Composite Restoration

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The remaining 15 samples each from Group A (I and II), Group B (I and II), and Group C (I and II) and 10 samples from control were etched using 37% phosphoric acid (Scotchbond™ Multi-Purpose Etchant, 3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA) for 30 s, washed with water, and dried with filter paper. After etching of the dentin surfaces, bonding agent (Adper™ Single Bond 2 Adhesive, 3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN 55144, USA) was applied and cured as per the manufacturer's instructions. The customized split metal casing was stabilized using a micropore tape and assembled around the samples to form a circular hole of dimensions 2 mm diameter and 3 mm height followed by placement of the resin composite (Z100™ Restorative, 3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA) in increments of 1 mm in the hole and photopolymerization was performed for 40 s.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
