Applying 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA) solution to etched dentin enhances the bonding of resin to dentin. However, the principal adhesion mechanisms have not yet been identified. In this study, we examined the dissociation states of the collagen functional groups of the side-chain amino acid residues and their effects on the bond strength of resin to etched dentin primed by the HEMA solution. The bond strength was strongly dependent upon the dissociation state of the collagen functional groups. Inhibiting the dissociation of the carboxylic acid or the amine of a collagen functional group resulted in increased bond strength of resin to collagen. By understanding the significance of inhibiting the dissociation state, we can better design and develop more effective and efficient primer and bonding agents.

Key Words: dentin adhesion mechanism • dentin primer • HEMA • dentinal collagen • collagen functional group
