Bond strength of a luting composite to dentin with different bonding systems

This study evaluated the tensile bond strength of Conclude luting composite to dentin under different environmental conditions with Scotchbond dental adhesive, the FNP system, and unfilled BIS-GMA resin used as bonding agents. Although the bonding systems reportedly yield high tensile bond values to enamel, large differences were observed in this study for bond values to dentin. Only the FNP bonding system produced consistently high tensile load values to dentin under the three environmental conditions tested.
