To observe the influence of chemomechanical caries removal on dentin adhesion by scanning electron microscope. The ultrastructure of dentin surfaces and adhesives-dentin bonding interfaces after caries removal by chemomechanical method or drilling were observed. Less smear layer in dentin surface, resin tags in the interface between dentin and Prime&Bond NT/compomer and numerous resin tags and more uniform and closer hybrid layer in the interface between dentin and Adper Prompt-L-Pop/composite were found in chemomechanical preparation than in drilling preparation. Chemomechanical caries removal can benefit dentin adhesion.
