title: Effect of combining dentin bonding agents.
abstract: The wall-to-wall polymerization contraction of a light-cured composite was measured in cylindrical dentin cavities treated with the bonding agents: Scotchbond, Clearfil Bond, Gluma/Scotchbond, Gluma/Silux Enamel Bond or Gluma/Clearfil Bond. Marginal gaps were prevented in 29 out of 30 cases when Gluma was used in combination with Clearfil Bond. This combination mediates a mean bond strength between composite and dentin of 20 MPa.
