INTRODUCTION: Bone graft is a very common procedure that is performed when bone volume needs to be increased before a dental implant. Screws and miniplates are the clinical standards for osteosynthesis. However, some disadvantages for this method have been reported, including artifacts on radiological images, infection, screw loosening, and the need to remove screws that interfere with the dental implants. Bone adhesives are a promising alternative for bone graft surgery. PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to compare the shear bond strength of two @entity3080 -based adhesives and @entity702 screws for bone graft fixation. METHODS: @entity1707 jaw samples were cut into rectangular bars (2  *  6  *  20  mm) and bonded with a 5-mm overlap of @entity7548 and @entity25558 , and 1.5-mm @entity702 screws were inserted into the center of the contact area. The blocks were fixed on a shear bond strength device that was coupled to a universal testing machine. The maximum force (N) was recorded on a computer and divided by the bonded area (in mm(2)) in order to calculate the bond strength (MPa). The data were statistically analyzed with ANOVA and Tukey's test (a  =  0.05). RESULTS: The shear bond strengths of the screws were significantly higher than both @entity3080 adhesives, which presented statistically similar bond strength means, and have the biomechanical potential to be used for bone fixation. CONCLUSIONS: @entity25558 is an inexpensive adhesive that has multiple purposes and can be considered as an alternative for bone fixation.
