Table 3. Micro-shear bond strength(SBS) of the groups tested in this study.

Group SBS (MPa) F value p value
Group 1 25.03 ± 2.73a - -
Group 2 25.03 ± 2.73a 681.48 0.0001
Group 3 15.16 ± 1.53b - -
LSD 2.84 - -

The values are presented as means ± standard deviations. The values with different superscript letters are significantly different at p < 0.05.

Group 1, control (RMGIC-sound dentin assembly specimens); Group 2, RMGIC-artificially demineralized dentin assembly specimens (CAD specimens); Group 3, RMGIC to demineralized then CPP-ACP remineralized dentin assembly specimens (remineralized CAD specimens); LSD, least significant difference; RMGIC, resin-modified glass ionomer cement; CAD, caries-affected dentin; CPP-ACP, casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate.
