Interventions
Our research group performed a prospective randomized clinical trial to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of three adhesive systems: a self-etch of two steps with selective enamel etching, a self-et
A3) was placed incrementally and light-cured using a LED-curing unit (S.P.E.C.®3)
Experimental groups:
1. Clearfil™ S3 Bond : Apply adhesive on surface and scrub it in
light-cure for 10 s
2. Clearfil™ SE Protect Bond: Apply primer and leave undisturbed for 20 s
apply bonding agente for 10 s
light-cure for 10 s
3. Prime&Bond® XP: Apply etchant for 15 s
light-cure for 20 s
One single experienced and calibrated operator performed all restorative treatments. In all cases was made a prior polishing of the tooth with a prophylactic brush
