The pathway to the dental pulp through the cut dentin can lead to pulpal pathology following a crown preparation. While eugenol temporary cements can occasionally reduce dentin sensitivity following tooth preparation, this material can be problematic due to its unfavorable reactivity with composite resin cements. To protect the prepared substrate prior to its definitive restoration and to minimize post-operative sensitivity attributed to thermal changes or bacterial invasion of the dentin tubules, a treatment option that is more effective biologically and chemically is required. This article demonstrates the clinical application of an antibacterial self-etching bonding system.
