The purpose of this study was to evaluate ascorbic acid (AS) and ferric chloride (FE) for bonding 4-META/MMA-TBB resin to dentin that had been treated with NaClO. An experimental dentin conditioner consisting of 10%AS and 5%Fe (10AS-5FE) and three controls (10AS-0FE, 0AS-5FE, and 0AS-0FE) were prepared. Ascorcic acid neutralizes NaClO. The flattened dentin surfaces were modified sequentially with phosphoric acid etchant, NaClO agent, and the experimental conditioner, then each surface was bonded to a stainless steel rod with 4-META/MMA-TBB resin. The Super-Bond C&B (10-3/SB) system was also used. 24-hour tensile bond strengths were determined. The bonding system using 10AS-5FE conditioner showed significantly high bond strength compared to 10AS-0FE, 0AS-5FE, and 0AS-0FE. No significant differences were observed between 10AS-5FE and 10-3/SB. Microphotographs suggested that no hybrid layer formed in the 10AS-5FE group. Although the use of phosphoric acid and NaClO resulted in decreased bond strength between 4-META/MMA-TBB resin and dentin, additional conditioning with ascorbic acid and ferric chloride improved the bond strength.
