The composite biomaterials used for manufacturing indirect inlay restorations are advanced materials that offer a superior alternative in operative dentistry. The compatibility of the composite inlay with the resin cement and adhesive system is important in achieving a good seal at the tooth-restoration interface, thus ensuring its durability in time. This in vitro study aimed to evaluate the ability of some experimental adhesive systems to create a good bond between the dental structures and Barodent inlays together with the luting resin cement used for inlay cementation. Forty composite inlays were manufactured using the Romanian composite for indirect restorations, Barodent (ICCRR). For luting the restorations, two experimental adhesive systems were used in combination with a dual cured resin cement. Two well recognized adhesive systems were used as control, in order to compare the results for the experimental products. The tooth -luting cement-inlay interfaces were investigated using scanning electron microscopy analysis. The results showed some similarities between the interfaces obtained with the experimental adhesives and those obtained with the trade-mark adhesives.
