Resumo

Aim: To quantify the microleakage on restorations carried out with a two-step etch-and-rise adhesive system and nanofilled composite resin after thermal and mechanical loading cycling. Methods: Ninety cavities were prepared on proximal surfaces of incisive teeth, and were randomly divided according to the photoactivation time (10, 20, or 30 s) and light-curing mode (Quartz Tungsten Halogen (QTH) lamps, 450 mW/cm 2; Light Emitting Diode (LED) second generation, 1100 mW/cm 2; or LED third generation, 700 mW/cm 2) of an adhesive system (n = 10). Following restorative procedures and thermal and mechanical loading cycling, the samples were immersed in Methylene Blue for 2 h. The samples were ground, and the powder was prepared for analysis in an absorbance spectrophotometer. All results were statistically analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey's test at the 5% level of significance. Results: There were no significant statistical difference in microleakage between the light-curing mode (P = 0.1212) and light-curing time (P = 0.2043). Conclusion: Different curing modes and increasing the curing time were not factors that influenced the process of microleakage. (AU)
