Compend. 2010;32(7): Pashley DH, Tay FR, Imazato S. Hot to Increase the durability of Resin-Dentin Bonds. Compend. 2010;32(7): Dentin Bonding Challenges Most simplified one-step adhesives were shown to be the least durable, while three-step etch-and-rinse and two-step self-etch adhesives continue to show the highest performances, as reported in the overwhelming majority of studies. In other words, a simplification of clinical application procedures is done to the detriment of bonding efficacy. Among the different aging phenomena occurring at the dentin bonded interfaces, some are considered pivotal in degrading the hybrid layer, particularly if simplified adhesives are used. Insufficient resin impregnation of dentin, high permeability of the bonded interface, sub-optimal polymerization, phase separation and activation of endogenous collagenolytic enzymes are some of the recently reported factors that reduce the longevity of the bonded interface. Dentin Bonding Solutions In order to overcome these problems, recent studies indicated that (1) resin impregnation techniques should be improved, particularly for two-step etch-and-rinse adhesives; (2) the use of conventional multi-step adhesives is recommended, since they involve the use of a hydrophobic coating of nonsolvated resin; (3) extended curing time should be considered to reduce permeability and allow a better polymerization of the adhesive film; (4) proteases inhibitors as additional primer should be used to increase the stability ofthe collagens fibrils within the hybrid layer inhibiting the intrinsic collagenolytic activity of human dentin.

Dent Mater Jan;24(1): Dentin Bonding Solutions SE 1-step adhesives are too hydrophilic and permeable even after polymerization The best way to minimize these weaknesses is to apply a neutral-ph, hydrophobic adhesive resin layer in a separate step Acidic components cause incompatibility with selfcured composites. 3-step, etch-and-rinse adhesives remain the gold standard in terms of adhesive durability.
