Effects of Adper™ Scotchbond™ 1 XT, Clearfil™ SE Bond 2 and Scotchbond™ Universal in Odontoblastic Activity

: This study aimed to assess in vitro cytotoxicity for Adper™ Scotchbond™ 1 XT (SB1), Clearfil™ SE Bond 2 (CSE) and Scotchbond™ Universal (SBU), using MDPC-23 cell cultures. The metabolic activity, protein content, cell death types and cellular morphology were evaluated. All extracts determined a significant reduction in cell metabolism and viability. CSE extracts significantly reduced cell’s metabolic activity at its higher concentrations (50% and 100%). All adhesives determined a reduction in the number of viable cells. Changes were dependent on the adhesive, concentration and incubation time. CSE was the most cytotoxic and showed a higher degree of reactivity. and investigation, and and data and writing—
