Abstract

I. Objectives The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of adhesive property on microtensile bond strength and to determine the failure mode. II. Materials and Methods Flat occlusal dentin surfaces were prepared using low-speed diamond saw. The dentin was etched with 37% phosphoric acid. The following adhesives were applied to the etched dentin according to manufacturer's directions;Scotchbond Multi-Purpose in group 1, Primer&Bond NT in group 2, Scotchbond Multi-Purpose followed by Tetric-flow in group 3. After adhesive application, a cylinder of resin-based composite was built up the occlusal surface.(omitted)
