                  DENTIN BONDING AGENTS  1) FIRST GENERATION DENTIN BONDING AGENT: It consist of surface active co-monomer NPG-GMA  MECHANISM OF ACTION:  This co -monomer could chelate with calcium on tooth surface to generate chemical bond of resin to calcium  example: SS WHITE BURS,CREVIDIENT  It had poor strength ,hence when used in non-carious lesion without mechanical retention 2) SECOND GENERATION: They were based on phosphorous esters of methyl acrylate derivative  MECHANISM OF ACTION: Adhesion was by means of iconic interaction between the negatively charged phosphate groups and positively charged calcium smear layer ADVANTAGE: Bond strength was high  DISADVANTAGE: Due to bond instability in the net oral environment and there one degree bonding to the smear layer and not dentin  EXAMPLE: Clearfin bonding system 3) THIRD GENERATION: It was phosphate based material contain HEMA and 10  carbon molecule ,10-MDP MECHANISM OF ACTION: The concept of phosphoric acid etching of dentin b
