title: In vitro evaluation of a cyanoacrylate bonding agent.
abstract: A new cyanoacrylate adhesive developed for orthodontic use was subjected to a controlled in vitro trial of ultimate shear bond strength. Performance deteriorated on storage in saline, rendering the material unsuitable for clinical use. Other alternatives to conventional acid-etch retained composite resin bonding agents are discussed.
