Abstract

Context: Many different polymeric materials to chair-side application on pre-impregnated glass fibers (PGF) are available and different protocols are used in clinical procedure. Aims: This study evaluated protocols used for dental splinting on adhesion between PGF and resin. Settings and Design: 42 pair of nano composite resin blocks with (6 × 6 × 8) mm 3 were assigned into seven groups (n=6) and bonded according to the protocol: Gar) adhesive, resin; Ggr) glass fiber, resin; Ggar) glass fiber, adhesive, resin; Gfgar) flowable resin, glass fiber, adhesive, resin; Ggafr) glass fiber, adhesive, flowable resin, resin; Ggfar) glass fiber, flowable resin, adhesive, resin; Gfgr) flowable resin, glass fiber, resin. Materials and Methods: Micro sticks obtained from each group were submitted to the micro tensile bond strength test. Statistical Analysis: The data were statistically evaluated using ANOVA and Tukey`s test (5%). Results: The protocol had a significant effect on the bond strength results (P=0.00). Gar and Ggar resulted in the highest bond strength with no statistical difference. Conclusions: The use of adhesive agent showed to be efficient to promote initial adhesion between fiber and nano composite resin.
