    <abstract locale="en_US">Purpose: In dental operations, repairing old restorations is a typical clinical procedure. This study aimed to evaluate the micro-Shear Bond Strength (&#xB5;SBS) of composite resin repairs with different adhesives and surface treatments.
&#xD;

Materials and Methods: After preparation, ninety resin composite discs were divided into three groups of thirty at random: no surface preparation, diamond milling roughness, and sandblasting.&#xA0; After 5000 heat cycles, each group was randomly divided into three subgroups of Single Bond (3M), Composite Primer (GC), and Schotch Bond Universal (3M) (n = 10). One-hundred eighty composite cylinders of the new composite were prepared by squeezing the composite into a silicon tube. The samples were then subjected to 5000 heat cycles. After thermocycling, &#xB5;SBS tests were done at a cross head speed of 0.5 mm/min.&#xA0; Tukey tests and two-way ANOVA were employed to analyze the data.
&#xD;

Results: In the unprepared group, the universal bond and composite primer micro-shear bond strength were significantly higher than the single bond group (p &lt; 0.05). In the milling group, the universal bond micro-shear bond strength was significantly higher than the composite primer and single bond group (p &lt; 0.05). In the sandblasted group there were no significant differences in &#x3BC;SBS among adhesives. In single bond adhesive, the micro-shear bond strength of milling was significantly greater than the sandblasted and unprepared groups (p &lt; 0.05). In the universal adhesive group, the micro-shear bond strength of the milling group was significantly higher than the sandblasted and unprepared groups (p &lt; 0.05).
&#xD;

Conclusion: The type of adhesive and the method of surface preparation have an impact on micro-shear bond strength. The greatest micro-shear bond strength was demonstrated by universal bond application combined with milling roughening.</abstract>
