Immediate dentin sealing (IDS) is the application of a bonding agent to freshly cut dentin when preforming a preparation for an indirect restoration such as inlay/onlays and crowns. Some of the advantages of the procedure are: effective seal of dentin, increased adhesion, reduced postoperative sensitivity, all of this while creating a hybrid layer that mimics the existing dentino-enamel junction. This hybrid layer also prevents the collagen from collapsing during impression taking and the final bonding process. The layer also reduces shrinkage stresses which in turn helps to promote a stress free dentin bond development. IDS is an advanced protocol aimed to increase the success rate of preparation, temporization, and final bonding of indirect restorative procedures. There is a great amount of research being done on the properties of dentin bonding. This is an emerging area of biomimetics that is truly having great results coming from it. Procedures like these are what is allowing biomimetic dentistry to take shape.
