Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to investigate the shear bond strength (SBS) of a self-adhering flowable composite (Vertise Flow; Kerr, Orange, CA) and a flowable composite (X-tra base; Voco GmbH, Cuxhaven, Germany) to mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), Biodentine (Septodent, Saint-Maur-des-Fosses Cedex, France), and calcium-enriched mixture (CEM; Yektazist Dandan, Tehran, Iran). METHODS: Sixty cylindric acrylic blocks with a hole (3 mm in diameter and 1.5 mm in height) were prepared. The acrylic blocks were filled with MTA, Biodentine, and CEM (n = 20) and accordingly allocated into 3 groups. The specimens were stored for 72 hours at 37°C and 100% humidity. Then, each group was divided into 2 subgroups according to the composite resin type used (n = 10). Vertise Flow and X-tra base were applied over MTA, Biodentine, and CEM and then polymerized. SBS was tested in a universal testing machine with a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. Data were analyzed using 2-way analysis of variance and the Tukey test. RESULTS: The Vertise Flow-CEM and X-tra base-MTA groups showed significantly higher SBS values than the group made of Vertise flow-Biodentine (P < .05). There were no statistically significant differences among the other groups (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS: MTA and CEM exhibited higher SBS than Biodentine; therefore, they could be preferred under flowable composites.
