| Abstract | ||
| Flowable resin composites have been recommended for many clinical uses and have been formulated in a variety of compositions and viscosities to meet various uses. The aim of this study was to determine if flowable composite with or without resins could be used as orthodontic bracket bonding. Sixty noncarious human premolars were divided into three equal groups. Metal brackets were bonded to etched enamel using a composite resin control (Resilience® orthodontic adhesive) and flowable composite with and without sealant resin (Resilience® flowable composite). After 72 hours of incubation in deionized water at 37 C°, debonding was performed with a shearing force. The shear bond strength (SBS) and the mode of bond failure were examined. High significant difference was observed in the SBS between control and flowable groups. Clinically acceptable SBS was found for the two flowable adhesives with bond failures occurred mostly in the bracket–adhesive interface. No significant differences between flowable groups. In conclusion, the use of flowable composite with and without sealant resin is advocated for orthodontic bracket bonding. | ||
