Title: [Shear bond strength of glass ionomer cement for orthodontic bracket bonding]. Author: Hu W, Fu M, Sun Z. Journal: Zhonghua Kou Qiang Yi Xue Za Zhi; 2000 May; 35(3):227-9. PubMed ID: 11780232. Abstract: OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the shear bond strength of resin-modified glass ionomer used for orthodontic bracket bonding. METHODS: 30 extracted premolars were evenly divided into two groups. Edgewise brackets (Orsu) were bonded with resin-modified glass ionomer (Advance) in group one and with composite resin (DM) in group two. The shear bond strengths of two materials were tested by material testing machine after 24 hours. The adhesive remnant index was scored after debonding. RESULTS: The shear bong strengths of resin-modified glass ionomer and composite resin were (6.862 +/- 2.142) MPa and (7.183 +/- 3.205) MPa respectively. There were no statistically significant differences between two groups. CONCLUSIONS: In vitro bond strength of resin-modified glass ionomer had reached the same level of composite resin. It had the prospect of clinic use.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
