As oral hygiene becomes more difficult in patients with fixed orthodontic appliances, the
decalcification of the enamel surface adjacent to these appliances is prevalent …

The literature contains a large number of publications on in vitro bond strength testing of
materials used in orthodontics. The results are often quoted by manufacturers to support …

Irradiation of enamel with laser energy changes the physical and chemical characteristics of
the enamel surface, and these alterations hold promise for the conditioning of enamel for …

In this study, we examined two fluoride-releasing orthodontic agents in respect to fluoride
