The effect of different force magnitudes for placement of orthodontic brackets on shear bond strength, in three adhesive systems.

2018

Background: Amount of pressure exerting on orthodontic brackets during bonding can create different thickness of adhesive and affect shear bonding strength(SBS) in different adhesive systems. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of different force magnitudes for placement of brackets on SBS. Material and Methods: In an in vitro study, 420 brackets were placed on the bovine teeth, using three types of adhesives, Concise (chemically cured two-paste mix), Unite (chemically cured no mix), and Transbond XT( light cured), with the application of seven force magnitudes of 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 600 and 1000 grams in twenty-one groups of twenty samples each. SBS means (using two-wa…
