Comparison of the shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets bonded using silorane base and metacrylate base composite
Orthodontic bracket failure during treatment is a common problem. With the introduction of low shrinkage composites the question is that whether: this sufficient has coefficient bond strength for bonding bracket during orthodontic treatment. The aim of this study was to compare the shear bond strength (SBS) of silorane-based and metacrylate-based composites to metal brackets.
30 human premolar teeth were collected and divided into 2 groups. In group 1, 15 orthodontic brackets were bonded using silorane-based composite, in group 2, 15 orthodontic brackets were bonded using metacrylate-based composite. The shear bond strength of each specimen was determined in an Instron machine. Amount of residual adhesive remaining on each tooth was evaluated using a stereomicroscope. Data were analyzed using T-test to compare the shear bond strength between groups and LSD method to compare the Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI) scores.
There was significant difference in the SBS between the test groups (P<0.001). The mean bond strength of bonding brackets to silorane-based composite was (42.42 ± 7.03) MPa, and the mean bond strength of bonding brackets metacrylate-based composite was (21.08±2.97) MPa. No significant difference in the ART was found between groups (P=0.66).
Silorane-based composite provided higher bond strength to orthodontic metal brackets.
