Avaliação in vitro da dureza, da resistência adesiva e do índice de adesivo remanescentes em três resinas ortodônticas

Abstract

This in vitro study was conducted to evaluate the Vickers Hardness (HV), the shear bond strength (RA) and adhesive remnant index of orthodontic resins. A total of 60 premolars extracted for orthodontic indications were divided into tree groups, with 20 specimens (CP) for each group: COI – Concise Orthodontic (CO), TB – Transbond XT (TB), AQ – Aqualite (AQ). All specimens were stored in distilled water at room temperature for 24 hours and were subjected to testing after mechanical shearing with occluso-gingival direction, in a universal testing machine SHIMADZU, with a crosshead speed of 0,5 mm/min. The results were evaluated by ANOVA, and showed RA mean 18.21 ± 6.21 MPa for GI (CO), 25.02 ± 9.29 MPa to the GII (TB) and 14.31± 8.25 MPa for GIII (AQ). The analysis of variance determined statistical difference between groups p<0,05 and statistical difference between groups p<0,05 AQ/TB, CO/TB and no statistically significant difference between AQ/CO. The results for HV test were performed by the D’Agostino Pearson and ANOVA with criterion or one-way ANOVA and Tuckey post-test results with p<0,05. For evaluation of IAR test was used nonparametric Kruskal-Wallis followed by Dunn’s test results with p<0,05.The study showed statistically significant differences between groups of orthodontic resins investigated.
