This work was to analyze by Weibull statistics the shear bond strength of a low‐shrink Silorane‐based composite system to bone. The etching abilities of the adhesives were investigated by scanning electron microscopy. Results suggest that an effective and reliable bond to bone could be achieved by the Silorane‐based composite system, showing the potential of this system to be used as a bone cement.
