Abstract
(1) Background: Bond strength between repair and restorative materials is crucial for endodontic success. This study assessed the effects of the following final irrigation solutions on the bond strength of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) to a bulk-fill composite: (1) 17% Ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA); (2) 2% Chlorhexidine (CHX); (3) 0.2% chitosan; (4) 0.2% chitosan with 2% CHX; 5) 0.2% chitosan with AgNPs. (2) Methods: Sixty MTA samples were divided into six groups (n = 10) based on the final irrigation solution: 1. EDTA, 2. CHX, 3. Chitosan, 4. Chitosan-CHX, 5. Chitosan-AgNP, and 6. distilled water (control). After a 5-min solution exposure, each sample was restored with the bulk-fill composite, and the shear bond strength (SBS) was measured. Structural changes in MTA were analyzed using SEM and EDS, and failure modes were classified as adhesive, cohesive, or mixed. Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA with Tamhane's T2 and Tukey's tests (α = 0.05). (3) Results: EDTA exhibited the lowest SBS (p < 0.001), while Chitosan-CHX showed the highest. SEM showed a spongy, void-rich surface in EDTA-treated MTA, with significant Ca depletion per EDS. Chitosan-CHX showed no structural change. Cohesive fractures within MTA were predominant. (4) Conclusions: EDTA significantly reduces SBS, while chitosan with CHX enhances bond strength.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Functional Biomaterials (JFB, ISSN 2079-4983) is an international and interdisciplinary scientific journal that publishes regular research papers (articles), reviews and short communications about applications of materials for biomedical use. JFB covers subjects from chemistry, pharmacy, biology, physics over to engineering. The journal focuses on the preparation, performance and use of functional biomaterials in biomedical devices and their behaviour in physiological environments. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Several topical special issues will be published. Scope: adhesion, adsorption, biocompatibility, biohybrid materials, bio-inert materials, biomaterials, biomedical devices, biomimetic materials, bone repair, cardiovascular devices, ceramics, composite materials, dental implants, dental materials, drug delivery systems, functional biopolymers, glasses, hyper branched polymers, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), nanomedicine, nanoparticles, nanotechnology, natural materials, self-assembly smart materials, stimuli responsive materials, surface modification, tissue devices, tissue engineering, tissue-derived materials, urological devices.
