RESUMO

The longevity of an adhesive interface is affected by the effects of hydrolytic degradation, which is associated with high water content in the dentin tissue. The hybridization of dentin with hydrophobic monomers in a water-free substrate could make the bond strength of these interfaces remain stable for an extended period of time. The aim of this study was to evaluate the bond strength of the adhesive interface in ethanol-saturated dentin using a microtensile test, on which a hydrophobic adhesive was used, and also to characterize the morphology of this interface. Twenty-eight molar teeth were cut to a flat middle third of the dentin was obtained. We studied four experimental groups: control group (Scotchbond MultiPurpose, 3M ESPE), whose dentin was saturated with water; experimental group 1, whose dentin saturated with ethanol was hybridized with the pure hydrophobic adhesive from Scotchbond adhesive system and experimental groups 2 and 3, whose dentin saturated with ethanol received hydrophobic primers dissolved in ethanol 10% and 30%, respectively. After dentin hybridization, teeth were restored with the incremental technique with composite resin (Filtek Z350, 3M ESPE). The immediate (24 hours) and late (6 months) adhesive resistance was determined by - tensile (0.5 mm / min) of "sticks" obtained by perpendicular cuts on the adhesive interface, with cross section area of 1 mm2. The sticks storage medium was artificial saliva at 37 °C. Interface samples were prepared to characterize the adhesive interface and to assess the failure mode by scanning electron microscopy. The data were submitted to two factors analysis of variance, adhesive technique and storage time, the latter being dependent. The results showed no statistical differences for all groups after 6 months of storage when compared to data obtained from the immediate group (24 hours). Also, no differences were found between groups evaluated at 24 hours and 6 months separately. The hybrid layer formed in ethanolsaturated dentin had similar characteristics considering the morphology and size formed by conventional technique. The technique of water replacement for ethanol produced interfaces as strong as the conventional wet technique, at least in the first six months.
