Bond strength of 4 orthodontic adhesives used with a caries-protective resin sealant
Lowder PD et al. - The 4 adhesive-sealant combination groups had mean SPBS values slightly lower than the 2 adhesive-only reference systems, but all were greater than 10 MPa, which is considered a clinically acceptable bond strength. ANOVA showed a statistically significant difference in mean SPBS among the 4 adhesive-sealant combinations. The most frequent site of bond failure at debonding for the adhesive-sealant combinations was within the adhesive. [more...]
