Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine whether a system using a resin coating material (PRG Barrier Coat) with anticariogenic ability can effectively bond orthodontic brackets to human teeth. Resin-modified glass-ionomer cement system (Fuji Ortho LC, group 1) and resin composite cement systems (BeautyOrtho Bond) combined with a self-etching primer (group 2), with the resin coating material (group 3), and with the resin coating material after an organic acid etching agent (group 4) were used for bracket bonding. The mean shear bond strength (SBS) was significantly higher in group 1 than in groups 2, 3 and 4. Groups 2 and 4 exhibited a significantly higher mean SBS than group 3. The resin composite cement system combined with the resin coating material after the organic acid etching agent can serve as an alternative for orthodontic bracket bonding.

Chemical Bonds
Atoms participate in a chemical bond formation to acquire a completed valence-shell electron configuration similar to that of the noble gas nearest to it in atomic number. Ionic, covalent, and metallic bonds are some of the important types of chemical bonds. Bond energy and bond length determine the strength of a chemical bond.
Types of Chemical Bonds
An ionic bond is formed due to electrostatic attraction between cations and anions. Often, the ions are formed by the transfer of electrons...

Shearing Stress
The average shearing stress can be calculated by dividing the shear by the area of the cross-section.
