The idea that immediate dentin sealing (IDS) can increase bond strength by more than 400% comes essentially from the classic study by Magne et al. published in 2005, in which the delayed dentin sealing (DDS) group showed extremely low bond-strength values compared with IDS. In the previous post on this blog, we reviewed the studies by Ribeiro … Read more

About a year ago, I was looking for background information for a research project analyzing the information shared about biomimetic restorative dentistry on social media, particularly Instagram. During that process, I came across several claims that caught my attention. One of them stated that biomimetic protocols can achieve bond strength values more than 400% higher than those obtained with … Read more
