Longevity of a restoration is predicted to some extent by its adhesive ability, and this in turn can be measured by bond strength testing. An ideal bond strength test should be accurate, clinically reliable and less technique‐sensitive. It should involve the use of relatively unsophisticated and inexpensive test protocols. Static tests are categorized into macro‐tests where the bond area is >3 mm² and micro‐tests with <3 mm² bond area [15].
