Transition metal salt solutions and anaerobic adhesives in dental bonding

摘要

Objectives: The objectives of this experiment were twofold. Firstly to determine whether an anaerobic adhesive could be used to bond steel attachments to etched human enamel, following treatment of this surface with various concentrations of copper 9II) sulphate solution. Secondly, to determine the effect of 0.05 M solutions of other transition metal sulphates and chlorides on the same bonding process. Methods: Stainless steel attachments were bonded to human enamel using an anaerobic adhesive.
