Abstract
Purpose
To assess the effect of the contact compressive force to seat orthodontic brackets on shear bond strength (SBS) and adhesive thickness using adhesive resins with different viscosities.
Methods
A total of 184 premolars were divided equally into eight groups of 23. Transbond XT and Beauty Ortho Bond paste viscous self-etching adhesive systems were used with contact compressive forces of 0.5, 1, 2, and 3 N (groups 1–4 and groups 5–8, respectively) via a push–pull tension gauge. SBS and adhesive thickness were measured in each adhesive system for each contact compressive force.
Results
Significant differences existed in the SBSs between the adhesive systems for each contact compressive force and the SBSs were significantly higher in groups 1 (17 MPa) and 2 (16 MPa) than in groups 3 (14 MPa) and 4 (13 MPa). Significant differences existed for the adhesive thickness between the adhesive systems for the three contact compressive forces less than 3 N. The adhesive in group 1 (0.184 mm) was significantly thicker than that in groups 2–4 (from 0.098 to 0.129 mm). In groups 2 (0.129 mm) and 3 (0.121 mm) it was thicker than in group 4 (0.098 mm), and in group 5 (0.119 mm) it was thicker than in groups 6–8 (from 0.087 to 0.088 mm).
Conclusions
The high-viscosity adhesive Transbond XT exhibited higher SBSs than the low-viscosity Beauty Ortho Bond paste. For the adhesive Transbond XT, lower contact compressive forces produced greater adhesive thicknesses and higher SBSs. For the Beauty Ortho Bond paste, no significant changes in the adhesive thickness or SBS values were observed for contact compressive forces greater than 0.5 N.
