Aim:
To compare and evaluate the shear bond strength of sixth and seventh-generation dentin bonding agents.
Materials And Methods:
Around 75 extracted permanent mandibular premolars were selected and assigned into two groups. The samples were cleaned, cavities were prepared, and the bonding agent was applied and stored in distilled water for 24 hours. Shear bond strength testing was done using a universal testing machine at the crosshead speed of 1 mm/minute. Data were analyzed statistically by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and paired test.
Results:
The greatest mean shear bond strength to dentin was exhibited by the sixth-generation dentin bonding agent due to the solvent present, which has a low concentration and low hydrophilicity than the seventh-generation.
Conclusion:
Sixth-generation adhesives showed significantly higher mean shear bond strength to dentin than seventh-generation adhesives.
Clinical Significance:
Bond strength values are gross assessing tools for evaluating the efficacy of restorative bonding materials to dentin. And as the shear bond strength is less technique sensitive to perform, it will highlight the strength at the bonded interface.

Bonding and Strength of Aggregate
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...
