Improving Clinical Retention of One-Step Self-Etching Adhesive Systems With an Additional Hydrophobic Adhesive Layer Reis A et al. - The conversion of the iBond Gluma inside and Clearfil S3 Bond adhesive systems into two-step systems by means of applying an extra hydrophobic adhesive layer improved the clinical performance of these materials after 18 months of clinical service. The application of an extra hydrophobic adhesive layer over OSSE adhesive systems, layers improved the OSSE systems clinical performance, mainly in terms of retention rate. [more...]
