Clinical Relevance In the current study, contemporary adhesives are assessed mechanically and ultra-morphologically to predict clinical effectiveness. Adhesives with simplified application procedures (in particular, one-step self-etch adhesives) still underperform as compared to conventional “gold-standard” multi-step adhesives. “Mild” two-step self-etch adhesives that provide additional chemical bonding appear to most optimally combine bonding effectiveness with a simplified application protocol.
