Objective. Interproximal enamel reduction is a part of orthodontic treatment for gaining a
modest amount of space in the treatment of crowding. Today interproximal enamel reduction …

Artificial abrasion of interproximal surfaces has been described for almost seventy years as
orthodontic intervention for achievement and maintenance of ideal treatment outcome. A …

Introduction: We investigated whether interdental enamel reduction using fine diamond
disks with air cooling, followed by polishing, leads to iatrogenic damage or reduced …

INTRODUCTION: We investigated whether careful interdental enamel reduction (using
extrafine diamond disks with air cooling, followed by contouring with triangular diamond …

Introduction The aim of this study was to evaluate the surface roughness and morphology of
enamel with a surface roughness tester and scanning electron microscopy after the removal …

OBJECTIVES: Interproximal enamel reduction (orthodontic stripping) leaves surface-
roughness that encourages plaque adherence. Sealants and fluoride products have been …

Aim To evaluate the correspondence between the interproximal reduction (IPR) performed
clinically and that programmed in ClinCheck® and further assess which teeth showed an …
