Changes in Water Sorption and Solubility of Dental Adhesive Systems after Cigarette Smoke

Table 2

Mean (standard deviations) of water sorption and solubility (μg/mm³) of commercial adhesive systems tested in this study after immersion in deionized water and cigarette smoke during 21 days.

Adhesive systems	Water sorption		Solubility
	Water	Cigarette smoke	Water	Cigarette smoke
Adper Scotchbond Multipurpose Adhesive	89.2 (4.0) Ca	89.3 (3.0) Ca	−10.8 (2.3) Ca	−10.1 (2.4) Ca
Adper Scotchbond Multipurpose Adhesive/Primer	87.1 (4.1) Ca	90.1 (2.1) Ca	−5.3 (2.0) Ca	−10.6 (1.8) Ca
Adper Single Bond Plus	268.5 (25.9) Aa	275.1 (8.0) Aa	83.3 (9.9) Ba	89.6 (7.2) Ba
Adper Easy One	216.5 (11.7) Bb	243.6 (9.2) Ba	113.2 (6.3) Ab	122.2 (4.6) Aa

Means followed by distinct letters represent statistically significant differences (2-way ANOVA/Tukey, 𝛼 = 5%). Uppercased letters compare adhesives in the same column, and lowercased letters compare treatment in the same row for each sorption and solubility parameter.
