Abstract:
The aim of this project was to assess the effects of sonic toothbrushes on commonly used permanent luting cements. While results showed differences between the tensile bond strengths of the three cements, the differences were similar between the two groups: sonic and nonsonic toohbrush exposure. These findings suggest that the sonic toothbrush had no significant effect on the tensile bond strengths of any of the three tested cements.
