Aim: to evaluate micro tensile bond strength of new generation composite resins with dentin. Methods: Extracted human premolars teeth (n=48)were used to preper one hundred and sixty eight sticks .Specimens divided into two equal main groups according to types of composite used (A1; Xtra fil bulk-fill and A2; Tetric-N-Ceram bulk-fill). Then each main group were subdivided according the adhesive approach used into two equal subgroups (B1; total each and B2; self-etch). According to dentin depths each subgroup were further categorized into two equal categories according to dentin depths (C1; superficial and C2; deep). The μ-tensile bond strength was evaluated using universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. until failure occurred. Data were recorded, tabulated and statistically analysed.. Results: showed significant (p<0.05) effect of composite and dentin level on μ-tensile bond strength, while the effect of adhesive showed non-significant (p>0.05) dentin.Conclusion: Xtra-Fill bulk-fill has higher bond strength than Tetric Bulk-fill. Additionally, Total-etch adhesive system has higher bond strength than self-etch with the superficial dentin while self-etch adhesive system has higher bond strength with the deep dentin
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
