Abstract
Introduction: Contamination is a frequent challenge during composite restorations in pediatric dentistry, often compromising the bond strength of restorative materials. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of blood and hemostatic agents contamination on the bond strength of primary teeth.
Materials and Methods: In this in vitro experimental study, 80 extracted primary teeth collected in 2020 from the Islamic Azad University, Isfahan (Khorasgan) Branch, were used. The samples were divided into 4 groups: contaminated with blood, contaminated with 25% Aluminum chloride, contaminated with 15.5% Ferric sulfate, and no contamination (control group). Each group was subdivided into two subgroups based on the bonding system used (self-etch [SE bond] and universal [G premium]), and the composite was placed and cured. Bond strength was measured using a universal testing machine, and the final breaking force was recorded. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis parametric test (α = 0.05).
Results: Two-way ANOVA results showed that both contamination type and bonding type had a significant effect on dentin bond strength, while the interaction between these two factors was not significant. The SE Bond system generally performed better than G-Premium. Among contamination types, the control group had the highest bond strength, and the group contaminated with 25% Aluminum Chloride showed the lowest..
Conclusion: Contamination with blood and hemostatic agents (25% aluminum chloride and 15.5% ferric sulfate) significantly reduces dentin bond strength in both SE Bond and G-Premium.
