G2-BOND Universal was tested in DENTAL ADVISOR Laboratories for a 12-month thermocycling protocol. The purpose was to determine if the bond would be viable. Results of the study were excellent as it proved that the bond was not only strong, it was durable when subjected to repeated thermocycling. G2-BOND Universal performed better than CLEARFIL SE Bond 2 and Optibond FL tested in their respective etching modes to dentin and enamel in immediate 24 hour shear bond strength and after accelerated aging and 12 month storage.
