Bioengineering perspectives on adhesive delivery: performance analysis of dental microapplicators

SDI microapplicators demonstrated the highest structural stability and resistance to deformation, followed by Angelus, KG Sorensen, and FGM. Although adhesive release capacity was consistent across all brands, differences in bristle quality may influence handling characteristics and clinical precision.

Abstract

SDI microapplicators demonstrated the highest structural stability and resistance to deformation, followed by Angelus, KG Sorensen, and FGM. Although adhesive release capacity was consistent across all brands, differences in bristle quality may influence handling characteristics and clinical precision.
