Bond strength of metal orthodontic brackets to all ceramic crowns
Ismail, Moosa (University of the Western Cape, 2016)Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate, in-vitro, the shear bond strength (SBS) and the resultant failure pattern after debonding of metal orthodontic brackets bonded with TransbondTM XT adhesive resin cement and RelyXTM ... -
Comparative bond strengths of stainless steel orthodontic brackets bonded with different bonding agents
Hudson, Athol Peter Gilfillan. (University of the Western Cape, 2007)The aim of this project was to compare the shear bond strengths of three light cure orthodontic adhesive resins with three different stainless steel molar brackets. -
Cytotoxicity testing of various dentine bonding agents using human pulp fibroblast cell lines and a 3T3 mouse fibroblast cell line.
Moodley, Desi (University of the Western Cape, 2007)Introduction: Biocompatibility of all kinds of dental materials is of paramount importance In order to prevent/limit irritation or degeneration of the surrounding tissues where it is applied. Some researchers suggested ... -
The in vitro effect of a tooth bleaching agent on coffee and wine stained teeth
Malyi, Emil C. (University of the Western Cape, 2008)Summary: Aim: The aim of this laboratory study is to assess the efficacy of a tooth bleaching agent by evaluating the degree of color change with the use of a spectrophotometer and not by the usual subjective, visual ... -
A shear bond strength, microleakage and laser microscopic study of two dental compomers.
Moodley, Desi (University of the Western Cape, 1999)Purpose: To evaluate and compare the in-vitro shear bond strength and micro leakage of two compomers with their adhesive systems and to examine the dentine-restorative interface under confocal scanning laser microscopy ...
