Buonocore 1963 Retenção Adesiva e Materiais Adesivos
Dental applications for adhesives include the sealing of pits and fissures for caries
prevention, the prevention of marginal leakage in restorations and cavity lining. An
ideal dental adhesive should provide a lasting bond with both enam el and dentin;
polym erize rapidly near body tem perature, with little or no shrinkage; be sufficiently
cross linked to minimize expansion on water absorption; have sufficient strength to
resist masticatory fo rces; have the same coefficient of thermal expansion as tooth
structure; have mechanical properties close to those of tooth structure; be innocuous
to the pulp and oral tissues, and resist degradation in the oral environm ent.
