The purpose of this study was to determine whether a system using a resin coating material (PRG Barrier Coat) with anticariogenic ability can effectively bond orthodontic brackets to human teeth. Resin-modified glass-ionomer cement system (Fuji Ortho LC, group 1) and resin composite cement systems (BeautyOrtho Bond) combined with a self-etching primer (group 2), with the resin coating material (group 3), and with the resin coating material after an organic acid etching agent (group 4) were used for bracket bonding. The mean shear bond strength (SBS) was significantly higher in group 1 than in groups 2, 3 and 4. Groups 2 and 4 exhibited a significantly higher mean SBS than group 3. The resin composite cement system combined with the resin coating material after the organic acid etching agent can serve as an alternative for orthodontic bracket bonding.
