Clinical Relevance Resin-dentin bonds, which may have an influence on the long-term success of restorations, are prone to deterioration after cyclic loading. The tested one-step self-etching system (Etch&Prime 3.0) provided the least reliable dentin adhesion. After acid etching of dentin, alcohol/based adhesives performed better than those containing acetone as solvent.
