OBJECTIVE Several "one-bottle" dental adhesives recently have been introduced. These contain hydrophilic resin monomers that should readily wet tooth surfaces. Most also contain solvents that could increase enamel bond strengths by driving out residual moisture from enamel and increasing resin penetration. The purpose of this study was to evaluate bond strengths obtained by six one-bottle bonding agents and one conventional unfilled resin (control). METHODS Seventy bovine teeth were randomly assigned to seven groups of 10. Enamel was etched for 15 s with 35% phosphoric acid. Following application of the adhesive, composite resin was bonded using a gelatin capsule technique. Shear bond strengths to enamel were determined. RESULTS Mean bond strengths ranged from 14.2 MPa for Syntac Single-Component to 27.8 MPa for Single Bond. The mean for Syntac Single-Component was significantly less than that of all other systems tested. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study indicate that one-bottle bonding agents, with the exception of the Syntac material, provide enamel bond strengths at least equal to that of a conventional unfilled resin.

D003743	Dental Enamel	A hard thin translucent layer of calcified substance which envelops and protects the dentin of the crown of the tooth. It is the hardest substance in the body and is almost entirely composed of calcium salts. Under the microscope, it is composed of thin rods (enamel prisms) held together by cementing substance, and surrounded by an enamel sheath.
