Materials and Methods: In this study, four groups were formed: two conventional condensable composites[G-aenial posterior(GC), Palfique Estelite Paste(Tokuyama)], and two bulk-fill composites[Estelite Bulk Fill Flow(Tokuyama), Beautifil Bulk Restorative(Shofu)]. Each group was divided into two subgroups; G-premio bond (control group) ve self-cured Universal Bond (Tokuyama). 32 human third molar human teeth were prepared to expose dentin surfaces. After the preparation, the teeth were randomly divided into 4 main groups and 2 subgroups (n = 8), composites were applied to the surfaces with the help of cylindrical silicone transparent mold with a diameter of 4 mm and a height of 4 mm. Results: In this study, when both adhesive systems are evaluated; the highest shear bond strength value was Palfique Estelite Paste, while the lowest shear bond strength value was Beautifil Bulk Restorative. While the difference between Palfique Estelite Paste and Estelite bulk-fill flow, Beautifil Bulk Restorative was found to be statistically significant, the difference with G-aenial posterior was not significant in both adhesive groups. The difference between G-aenial posterior and Beautifil Bulk Restorative was found to be statistically significant in both adhesive groups. When adhesive systems are compared; G-premio bond was found to be higher in all composite groups compared to self-cured Universal Bond, but the difference between them was statistically insignificant. Conclusions: While conventional composites exhibited high shear bond strengths, bulk-fill composites showed values close to these values. The self-cured adhesive system we used showed near values of shear bond strength to the light-polymerized adhesive system. It is advisable to use self-cured adhesive systems for use in areas where light can be difficult to access in clinical applications.
