Introduction: The debonding of brackets is common in orthodontic practice. It may be due to bond failure or as a need for bracket repositioning. Typically practitioners shall discard dislodged brackets and replace it with a new bracket or reuse the bracketObjective: To compare and evaluate the shear bond strength of recycled orthodontic brackets using different methods.Materials & Method: A total of 50 extracted premolars and 50 metal brackets with a slot configuration of 0.022”x0.028” were used. All samples were divided into 5 groups with 10 samples each. Each group was further divided into 2 groups which were control group and experimental group. Experimental group was further subdivided into four recycle sub-groups. Tooth surface were prepared for bonding then brackets were bonded. The specimens were tested on Universal Testing Machine for shear bond strength. The force producing bond failure was recorded in Newtons (N) and converted into megapascals (Mpa).Result: Shear bond strength of control group was maximum among all recycled groups. Shear bond strength of recycled brackets bonded with silane coupling agent and recycled with flaming, electropolishing, sandblasting and ultrasonic cleaning was equivalent to the control group. Brackets recycled with flaming and sandblasting had less shear bond strength as compared to control group. Brackets recycled with flaming and electropolishing were having the least shear bond strength.Conclusion: Brackets recycled with flaming, ultra sonic scaling, electropolishing and treated with silane coupling agent was recorded with highest shear bond strength. Sandblasting of metal brackets to remove composite residue, had insignificant effect on the shear bond strength. Hence sandblasting should be considered as viable, time saving and convenient method of recycling.

Background. Detachment of acrylic teeth from denture base material is a common complication in dentistry which accounts for 26–30% of repair cases. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of alumina-blasting, silane coupling agent, and thermal cycling on the shear bond strength of repaired teeth to denture base. Materials and Methods. Specimens (140) of repaired teeth to denture bases were fabricated and divided into 14 groups: 7 groups before thermal cycling and 7 groups after thermal cycling (n = 10). The groups were divided according to surface treatment into no treatment (control), treatment of the base (B), the tooth (T), or both (BT). Each group was further subdivided according to the surface treatment method into alumina-blasting or alumina-blasting and silane coupling agent. After treatment, acrylic discs and teeth were fixed in a jig, and the repair procedure was done. Half the specimens were thermally cycled. Shear bond strength was measured using a universal testing machine. ANOVA and Tukey HSD tests were performed at α = 0.05. Results. Surface treatment significantly improved the bond strength compared to the control group P < 0.001 . Comparing surface treatments, alumina-blasting with silane coupling agent treatment resulted in significantly higher strength compared to alumina-blasting alone P < 0.001 . The BT group treated with alumina-blasting and silane coupling agent showed the highest significant shear bond strength (23.91 ± 0.96 MPa) P < 0.001 . Significant drop in strength value was observed in all groups after thermal cycling P < 0.004 except the BT group treated with alumina-blasting P = 0.096 . Conclusion. Surface treatment using alumina-blasting with silane coupling agent for denture base and tooth increased repair strength.

ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Acrylic resin ruled the dental profession for 60 years, and this success is attributed to its aesthetics, handling properties, physical and biological compatibility, its stability in oral environment and its cost effectiveness. The objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the bond strength of acrylic resin teeth treated with various conditioning materials like monomer and silane coupling agent. Methdology A study was carried out in which 96 samples were grouped into 3 groups with a sample size of 32 each (16 premolars, 16 molars). They were conditioned with different conditioning materials i,e monomer and silane coupling agent. Monomer, Silane coupling agent are coated on the ridge lap area before thermocycling and cured according to the manufacturer recommendations. The samples are retained from the flask; trimmed and polished. The samples are then subjected to shear bond strength using the Insteron Universal Testing Machine. Results In the present study it was found that application of monomer increased the bond strength between acrylic teeth and denture base, when compared to the conventionally processed samples. However it was found that application of silane coupling agent further increased the shear bond strength between acrylic teeth and denture base. Interprations and conclusions Within the confines of this study it is found that there was a significant improvement in the bond strength between the acrylic teeth and denture base when silane coupling agent and monomer were used as surface conditioning material. The order of shear strength of samples is control > monomer > silane coupling agent. How to cite this article Madhav GV, Raj S, Yadav N, Mudgal I, Mehta N, Tatwadiya R.

One of the problems that often occurred during orthodontic treatment is bracket failure. This is usually the result either of the patient’s accidentally, applying inappropriate forces to the bracket or of a poor bonding technique. Thus, a significant number of teeth have to be rebonded in an orthodontic practice. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro initial repeated shear bond strength of the three adhesive systems at two and five minutes after placement of a bracket. Materials and Methods: The three bonding agent adhesives are System1+, Rely-a-bond, Unite. Two hundred and forty human premolar teeth were divided into two groups, a control and an experimental group. Each group was further divided into three subgroups for bonding brackets with the three different adhesives. Only the teeth in the experimental group were sequentially bonded and debonded two times with the same adhesive. The teeth in control and experimental groups were tested for shear bond strength (at two and five minutes after the bracket was bonded) with an Instron testing machine. Results: The studies were found that : (1) there were differences between the shear bond strength of each adhesive in the control and experimental group. Unite had the highest shear bond strength followed by Rely-a-bond and System1+ at two minutes and five minutes, (2) the experiment group ( rebonded brackets) had higher shear bond strength than control group and Unite had in significant difference (p<0.05) of initial repeated bond strength with System1+ and Rely-a-bond at two minutes and five minutes and (3) there were mostly significant difference (p<0.05) between repeated shear bond strength at two minutes and repeated shear bond strength at five minutes. Conclusion: There were significant difference of the initial repeated shear bond strength of each adhesive. The orthodontists should be aware of applying force for tooth movement into the repeated bonding brackets.

ABSTRACT Introduction The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of different combinations of various surface treatments on the shear bond strength (SBS) of repaired composite resin. Materials and methods A total of 122 composite samples were prepared from Filtek Z350 XT. Samples were light cured and stored for 6 weeks. Surface treatment of old composite was done in five groups: Group I: bur roughening + phosphoric acid etching, group II: bur roughening + hydrofluoric acid etching + silane coupling agent, group II: air abrasion + phosphoric acid etching, group IV: air abrasion + phosphoric acid etching + silane coupling agent, group V: air abrasion + hydrofluoric acid etching + silane coupling agent. Bonding agent was applied to all surface-treated old composites and light cured. The fresh composite resin was bonded to treated surfaces and cured and stored in water at 37°C for 6 weeks. Shear bond strength was measured by a universal testing machine. Results Shear bond strength values of all groups were not statistically significant except for group V, which showed statistically significant higher SBS than group III. Conclusion Techniques with readily available materials at the clinic can attain similar SBS to more elaborate technique involving potentially hazardous materials.

Abstract Objective The Primekote® (TP) polymer was incorporated to the of Orthodontic Bracket mesh base to improve bond strength and make it more efficient. The purpose of this study was to assess the shear bond strength and adhesive remnant index (ARI) of these brackets. Material and method The test sample consisted of thirty bovine incisors divided into 2 groups: with a group with TP® brackets (n=15), and a control group with Morelli® brackets (n=15) without Primekote® technology. The TransbondTM XT was used as adhesive system in both groups, following the same protocol and manufacturer’s instructions. Specimens were stored in distilled water for 24 hours and then submitted to shear bond strength test in a universal testing machine (EMIC DL2000). The assessment of ARI was performed under stereomicroscope by two calibrated examiners. Result No significant differences (p>0.05) in shear bond strength were found between the two groups according to the independent t-test. The Wilcoxon test was used to assess ARI data and statistical difference was found between Morelli® and TP® Nu-Edge brackets; the last one left less remaining adhesive on tooth surface. Conclusion TP® brackets had higher adherence to the adhesive system as shown by lower ARI scores, but this does not improve its clinical performance.
