Abstract

This in vitro study evaluated the effect of addition of rhodamine B dissolved in ethanol in concentrations of 0.02mg/mL and 0.10mg/mL, the mechanical properties of non-simplified adhesive systems. 96 crowns of human third molars were transversely sectioned on the oclusal third to remove the enamel and exposure the dentin. The specimens were divided according to the adhesive systems Adper Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (MP) 3-step-etch-andrinse or Clearfil SE Bond (SE) 2-step-self-ecthing: MP-C and SE-C (MP and SE controls); MP-C1 and SE-C1 (MP and SE with 0.02mg/mL rhodamine B); MP-C2 and SE-C2: (MP and SE with 0.10mg/mL rhodamine B). For the &#x3BC;TBS test, the specimens (n=10) were ground with 320- to 600-grit silicon carbide paper. The dentin was treated according to the instructions of each manufacturer and restored with composite resin FiltekTM Z250. The specimens were stored in artificial saliva (7 days/37oC), and then sectioned to obtain sticks with an average of 0.64 mm2 area and submitted to &#x3BC;TBS test at a universal testing machine at 0.5 mm/min, which were analyzed immediately after 7 days and 6 months. The mode of fracture of the specimens was analyzed with digital stereomicroscope (x200) and classified as: adhesive, cohesive in dentine, cohesive in resin and mixed. For the SM test, the sectioned crowns (n=6) were flattened with 600-grit silicon carbide paper. The dentin was treated according to the manufacturers instructions for each adhesive system and the specimens were stored in dry condition at 37oC during 48 hours. The SM test was performed with Knoop indenter (Shimadzu HMV-2 hardness tester), at 10x and 25gF of load for 10 seconds. The results were analyzed by two-way analysis of variance tests and the Bonferroni test for multiple comparisons (p<0.05). The analysis regarding time was checked with t-student test. The mean &#x3BC;TBS and standard deviation (MPa±dp; 7 days / 6 months) were: MP-C (41.95±2.38 / 22.76±3.66); MP-C1 (28.02±5.12 / 17.93±5.70); MP-C2 (26.28±5.55 / 14.30±5.68); SE-C (46.07±1.43 / 19.07±6.75); SE-C1 (37.49±13.31 / 18.54±6.71); SE-C2 (34.16±7.71 / 17.89±4.87). In the immediate time, the adhesive system and rhodamine B concentration factors were significant. After 6 months, only the rhodamine B concentration was a significant factor. The predominant failure in all groups was adhesive. The values of SM and standard deviation were: MP-C (8.97±3.85); MP-C1 (7.33±0.99); MP-C2 (7.17±2.45); SE-C (4.71±4.42); SE-C1 (4.42±0.56); SE-C2 (3.27±0.30). In the comparison between the adhesive systems, they were significantly different for the conditions control and 0.10mg/mL. For each adhesive systems, there was no difference between the different conditions according to the addition of rhodamine B. Regarding the shown results, addition of rodhamine B in non-simplified adhesives MP and SE, in the concentrations of 0.02mg/mL e 0.10mg/mL must be carefully added to avoid implications to the mechanical properties of the materials.
