Popis: | Teaching dental students the proper protocol and application of bonding agents for improved composite restorations in the preclinical setting can be challenging due to difficulty in translating their bonding technique to clinical outcomes. The aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of utilizing a shear bond strength test and to evaluate if it improved student performance and confidence in adhesive dentistry. All 106 third-year and 106 fourth-year dental students (total N=212) at the University of California, Los Angeles, School of Dentistry were invited to participate in a shear bond strength workshop in 2016. The hands-on workshop used a bond strength testing instrument to demonstrate the various principles and techniques of adhesive dentistry. A total of 54 third-year and 34 fourth-year students (total N=88) participated, for response rates of 51% and 32%, respectively. For the total students, there was a significant difference in the mean bond strength between the first and second attempts (p |
