RESUMO

Bioactive glass-ceramics are synthetic materials capable of chemically bonding to dental structures. Adhesion of resin-modified glass-ionomer cements (RMGICs) to dentin may be influenced by different types of dentin pre-treatments. The objective of this study was to analyze the compressive strength, roughness and adhesion to dentin of RMGICs (Fuji II LC and Vitremer) after the incorporation of bioactive glassceramic particles (Biosilicate). Additionally, the durability of the RMGICs adhesion was analyzed after the application of EDTA as a pre-treatment of dentin. Cylinders of RMGICs with incorporation of 2, 5 and 10 % in weight of bioactive glass-ceramic particles were made for compressive strength, and stored in water for 24h at 37°C. Roughness of control and experimental (2% bioactive glass-ceramic) RMGICs was analyzed by atomic force microscopic (MFA) after storage in dry and humidity conditions for 1 month. For the microtensile test, the surfaces of the cavities were treated following the manufacturers instructions or by applying EDTA. The cavities were restored with control and experimental (2% bioactive glass-ceramic) RMGICs. After restorations, the specimens were stored in water for 24h and 7 days. For the degradation test, the RMGICs were stored for 24h, 3 months or immersed in 10% NaOCl for 5h. Teeth were sectioned in beams and submitted to microtensile test. ANOVA and multiple-comparisons tests were used (p<0.05). Mode of failure was classified in adhesive, mixed and cohesive, some specimens were analyzed by scanning electronic microscopic. Only the RMGICs with 2% of bioactive glassceramic obtained compressive strength similar to the control RMGICs. The storage conditions, dry or humidity, did not affect the roughness of experimental RMGICs. Bioactive glass-ceramic significantly increased the adhesion to dentin of RMGICs after storage for 24h, except for Fuji II LC when EDTA was applied. The application of EDTA significantly increased the values of bond strength. For the degradation study, high values of bond strength were also observed in groups where the dentin was pre-treated with EDTA. The bond strength of Fuji II LC to dentin was not affected by the degradation methods. Vitremer specimens presented significantly lower bond strength values after degradation methods, except when EDTA was applied. Mixed failures were the most prevalent in all groups. In conclusion, 2% of bioactive glassceramic particles may be included in RMGICs without affecting their mechanical properties. Roughness of experimental RMGICs was not affected by storage conditions. The incorporation of bioactive glass-ceramic increased the bond strength after storage for 24h. The application of EDTA as a pre-treatment of dentin increased the bond strength for all conditions studied and prevented the degradation of adhesive interface of Vitremer.
