ABSTRACT: Objectives:The aim of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strength of metal brackets bonded with different universal adhesive systems containing 10-MDP and Transbond Plus Self Etching Primer after 20,000 thermal cycles. Materials and Methods. A total of 130 sound bovine teeth were used, which are divided into 5 groups (n?=?26) according to the adhesive system used: All-Bond Universal (Bisco), Ambar Universal (FGM), Clearfil Universal Bond (Kuraray), Single Bond Universal (3M/ESPE), and Transbond Plus SEP (3M/ESPE) as control. The adhesives were applied for 20 seconds and bonded with a resin Transbond XT (3M/ESPE). After this, the teeth were submitted to 20,000 cycles at 5°C and 55°C. Afterwards, the shear bond strength test was performed in a universal test machine (Instron 3342). The adhesive remnant index (ARI) was evaluated under a stereomicroscope at 10x magnification and scanning electronic microscopy (SEM, Hitachi 3030). The shear bond strength data were submitted to One-Way ANOVA (??=?0.05) and the ARI to the Kruskal-Wallis test (??=?0.05) and the ARI to the Kruskal-Wallis test (. Results:Statistical analysis showed that the universal adhesive systems presented mean shear bond strength values similar to Transbond Plus SEP (p < 0.05). The universal adhesive presented similar ARI values among them but differed from those of Transbond Plus SEP (p < 0.05). The universal adhesive presented similar ARI values among them but differed from those of Transbond Plus SEP (. Conclusions:The results show that universal adhesive systems may be used for bonding metal brackets if the orthodontist wants to maintain dental enamel health.
