Abstract : Aim: To compare and assess the shear bond strength of two distinct generations of dentin bonding agents.  Material and Methods: Thirty-four extracted human premolars were collected for the study. The teeth's occlusal surfaces were decreased to expose the flat surface of dentin and randomly divided into two experimental groups (n=14). Group I- Seventh generation dentin bonding agent Group II- Eighth generation dentin bonding agent. Following the manufacturer's directions, bonding agents were applied and light-cured. On these prepared dentinal surfaces, a plastic mould was used to create composite cylinders. A Universal Testing Machine was used to determine the shear bond strength of each sample.  Results: When compared to seventh generation dentin bonding agent, the eighth generation dentin bonding agent shows highest shear bond strength value and demonstrated a statistically significant difference.  Conclusion: The study concluded that the shear bond of eighth generation bonding agents is stronger than that of seventh generation bonding agents.

Keywords : (Bond Strength, Dentin Bonding Agents, Universal Testing Machine).
