Applied Adhesion Science

Table 3 Microtensile bond strength means and standard deviation (±SD) for dentin and resin composite

Substrate	SBMP	SB	CLSE	SBU		Positive control	Negative control
Substrate	SBMP	SB	CLSE	SE	ER	Positive control	Negative control
Dentin	35.4^ab (±10.5)	39.4^a (±11.2)	36.6^ab (±10.9)	28.1^b (±13.7)	26.9^b (±7.4)
Resin composite					28.4^a (±9.9)	29.5^a (±11.7)	12.1^b (±8.7)

SBMP: Scotchbond Multipurpose; SB: Single Bond 2; CLSE: Clearfil SE Bond; SBU: Single Bond Universal; SE: self-etch technique; ER: etch-and-rinse technique; Positive control: Silane plus SB; Negative control: no treatment.
