Comparison on Shear Bond Strength between Precoated and Non-Precoated Adhesive Technique (an in vitro Study)

Abstract

The aim of this study was comparing shear bond strength between precoated adesif and non-precoated adhesive on metal bracket. Thirty extracted human maxillary first premolar were randomly divided into three groups (10 per group). The group 1 was bonded with metal bracket with precoated adhesive technique. The group 2 was bonded with metal bracket with non-precoated adhesive technique, and group 3 was a control. Testing shear bond strength was done 30 minutes after bracket bonding with Autograph universal testing machine with cross-head speed of 0,5 mm/min. It took significantly (p < 0.05) shear bond strength between with precoated adhesive technique and non-precoated adhesive technique. The precoated adhesive technique had greater shear bond strength (11,575 MPa) than non-precoated adhesive technique (10,061 MPa). The control group had the greatest shear bond strength (12.158 MPa). There were difference in shear bond strength between precoated adhesive technique and non-precoated adhesive technique
