| Abstract: | Cyanoacrylate-based adhesives have gained increasing attention in dentistry for their rapid polymerization, biocompatibility, and antimicrobial activity. This review analyzes the clinical use of cyanoacrylate adhesives—particularly the Glubran II formulation—in dental procedures, including wound closure, tissue management, and bleeding control. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases for studies published between 2000 and 2024, using specific inclusion criteria (clinical and in vitro studies focusing on dental applications of cyanoacrylates) and exclusion criteria (non-dental uses, insufficient data). The findings indicate that compared to traditional sutures, cyanoacrylates, especially n-butyl and octyl derivatives, significantly reduce operative time, postoperative pain, and infection rates. However, differences among formulations—such as degradation rate and cytotoxicity—require further exploration. Glubran II, in particular, shows promising results in hemostasis and wound stability. This review highlights the potential of cyanoacrylate adhesives as effective, minimally invasive alternatives in dental surgery and underlines the need for standardized protocols and long-term comparative studies.
