Popis: The data indicate that the two dentin bonding agents, used in conjunction with enamel acid etching, provided a superior seal of the cavity compared to the respective resins alone or with either the dentin bond agent or acid etching used alone. The seal of resin restorations placed with the total system (acid etch and dentin bond agent) were comparable to the seal of the glass ionomer cement restorations. Compared with the 2-week specimens, there was no increase in leakage of the 6-month resin restorations when inserted with dentin bond agents and acid etch. The sealing ability of the resin restorations in conservatively prepared cavities was superior to comparable resin restorations in cavities that had not been prepared. This did not appear to be true for glass ionomer cement restorations. Data obtained to compare the bond strength of resins as used in the study with that of glass ionomer cements do not indicate a precise correlation between bond strength and sealing ability. The exact role of dentin bonding agents await further evaluation of their stability over a prolonged period of time, particularly in clinical investigations.
