Popis: A study was conducted to investigate the influence of temperature and relative humidity (RH) on the bond strengths of several recently developed dentin bonding systems. Six environmental conditions, (A) 25+/-0.5 degrees C, 50+/-5% RH, (B) 25+/-0.5 degrees C, 80+/-5% RH, (C) 25+/-0.5 degrees C, 95+/-5 % RH, (D) 37+/-0.5 degrees C, 50 +/-5 % RH, (E) 37+/-0.5 degrees C, 80+/-5% RH, (F) 37+/-0.5 degrees C, 95+/-5 % RH were used. Bovine mandibular incisors were mounted in self-curing resin and the facial surfaces were ground on wet #600 SiC paper to expose the dentin. After the tooth surface had been treated according to each manufacturer's instructions, adhesives were applied, followed by condensation of resin composites into a mold placed on the dentin surface. Fifteen specimens per group were stored in distilled water at 37 degrees C for 24 h, and then shear-tested at a cross-head speed of 1.0 mm/min. Statistical analysis was carried out with two-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's test (P0.05). Dentin bond strengths decreased with increasing relative humidity but were not influenced by environmental temperature. Even though one-bottle adhesive systems require a wet dentin surface, their bond strengths are affected by an increase in environmental humidity.
