Advanced zinc-doped adhesives for high performance at the resin-carious dentin interface

- EDTA-treatment of dentin facilitates functional remineralization after load cycling.
- ZnO application after phosphoric acid etching lead to mineral precipitation on dentin.
- ZnCl2 promoted formation of amorphous and crystalline minerals after load cycling.
- EDTA and ZnCl2 decreased carbonate substitution in carious dentin after load cycling.
