Effect of smear layer deproteinizing on resin-dentin interface with self-etch adhesive
Conclusions NaOCl and HOCl solutions could remove the organic component on the smear layer-covered dentin, which could eliminate the hybridized smear layer created by self-etch adhesive, leading to the reduction of nanoleakage expression within hybrid layer. Clinical significance : Smear layer deproteinizing could modify dentin surface, giving an appropriate substrate for bonding to self-etch adhesive system. (Source: Journal of Dentistry)
