Abstract

Aim: This study compared the shear bond strengths of glass-ionomer cement (GIC) Type IX and Cention N.

Materials and Methods: To assess the shear bond strength, 40 samples each of GIC Type IX and Cention N were evaluated. Sample cylinders with dimensions of 4 mm in diameter and 4 mm in height were bonded to the buccal surface of teeth to evaluate the shear bond strength in a universal testing machine with a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min.

Results: The shear bond strength of Cention N in comparison to GIC Type IX was statistically highly significant (P < 0.01).

Conclusion: The results reached to a conclusion that shear bond strength of Cention N as compared to GIC Type IX was superior.
