Effect of a silver diamine fluoride and potassium iodide-based desensitizing and cavity cleaning agent on bond strength to dentine

摘要

Objectives: Recently a silver diamine fluoride and potassium iodide solution (Riva Star, SDI Australia) has been introduced for clinical use as a desensitizing agent or a cavity cleaner. Little is known whether the precipitate produced will affect adhesion to dentin. The aim of this study was to determine whether Riva Star influenced bond strengths to an etch-and-rinse (Optibond FL; Kerr, USA), 2-step self-etching (Clearfil Liner Bond F; Kuraray Noritake Dental, Japan) and all-in-one (Optibond Versa; Kerr) resin-based adhesives and a resin-modified GIC adhesive (Riva Bond LC; SDI Australia).
