abstract={<b>Objective:</b> In this study, we compared the antibacterial effects of several dentin bonding agents with different pH values and active monomers. <b>Method and Materials:</b> Infected dentin samples were obtained from depths of approximately 4-6 mm, from isolated and air-dried dental caries. <i>Streptococcus mitis</i> was isolated and incubated on sheep blood agar plates at 37ˇăC for 18 h. Impregnated antimicrobial disks were used for the liquids, and the samples were grouped as follows: group 1 was a negative control group with nothing applied; group 2 was a positive control group with 2% chlorhexidine digluconate applied; group 3 had Adper Single Bond Universal  applied; group 4 had Clearfil SE Bond 2 (including 10-methacryloyloxydodecyl dihydrogen phosphate[MDP]) applied; group 5 had Clearfil S3 Bond Plus (including [MDP])applied; and group 6 had Clearfil Protect Bond (including 12-methacryloyloxydodecylpyridinium bromide [MDPB])applied. The antimicrobial disks were inserted into the blood agar plates. Inhibition zones were measured on the plates by well-educated specialists. <b>Results:</b> The 2% chlorhexidine digluconate solution had a more extensive inhibition zone than the other groups. <i>S. mitis</i> was significantly inhibited on the MDPB-impregnated disks applied to the agar plates. <b>Conclusions:</b> The results demonstrated that dentin bonding agents including MDPB-containing primer had significant antibacterial effects.},
