<Abstract>Resin composites are frequently used in restorative dentistry, but polymerization shrinkage poses significant challenges. This study aimed to assess the micro-tensile bond strength of indirect composites to deep dentin utilizing various bonding agents under Immediate Dentin Sealing (IDS). Sixty non-carious third molar teeth were selected; their roots were sectioned below the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) and divided into five groups: four with adhesive systems (Optibond FL, SE bond, G Premio bond, G2 bond) under IDS and one control group using Delayed Dentin Sealing (DDS). After temporary restoration, composite blocks were bonded to each sample. A force of 500N was applied to measure micro-tensile bond strength until fracture, with data analyzed via chi-square tests, ANOVA, and Tukey’s post hoc tests. The bond strength values ranked from highest to lowest were Opti bond FL, SE bond, G2 bond, G Premio bond, and the control group. No significant differences were found among Opti bond FL, SE bond, and G2 bond (P &amp;gt; 0.05), but these three systems exhibited significantly higher bond strengths than the control group (P &amp;lt; 0.05). The bond strength of G Premio bond under IDS was significantly lower than the other adhesives (P &amp;lt; 0.05). In conclusion, IDS enhances the micro-tensile bond strength of indirect composite restorations to deep dentin, with Opti bond FL demonstrating the highest bond strength and the control group exhibiting the lowest.</Abstract>
