Abstrakt: Objective: The objective of this study was to determine whether an adhesive containing antibiofilm agent octafluoropentyl methacrylate (OFPA) has an acceptable bond strength as an orthodontic adhesive. Methods: Sixty human premolars were divided into four groups. In Groups 1 and 2, brackets were bonded to the teeth using experimental nanohybrid adhesive containing OFPA (ENH-OFPA) and Transbond XT (TXT) was used in Groups 3 and 4. In Groups 1 and 3, the samples were stored in water at 37°C for 24 h and in Groups 2 and 4 thermocycled between 5°C and 55°C. The entire samples were debonded utilizing a universal testing machine. Two-way ANOVA test employed to compare the shear bond strength (SBS) between two adhesives. Independent Student's t-test was utilized to compare the SBS at 24 h and followed thermocycling in each adhesive group. Adhesive remnant index (ARI) evaluated in different groups using Chi-square test. Results: The mean value for SBS in ENH and TXT groups were 8.13 MPa and 8.10 MPa, respectively. The inference of P = 0.260 was observed and concluded to be nonsignificant for adhesives in terms of SBS. Statistically, differences that observed in SBS at 24 h and following thermocycling in TXT (P = 0.288) and ENH-OFPA (P = 0.145) groups did not consider to be significant. Comparing ARI scores with bracket failure mode resulted in no significant difference (P = 1) between two adhesives in both 24 h and following thermocycling. Conclusion: Adding OFPA does not compromise SBS of the experimented orthodontic adhesive. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
