Background/purpose Self-adhesive resins (SARs) do not require additional restorative
adhesives and provide adequate adhesion to mineralized dental structures by shortening …

Adhesion between orthodontic brackets and conditioned enamel surfaces is essential for
treatment success with fixed appliances. During treatment, enamel demineralization lesions …

Background To evaluate 4 different composite resins in terms of aligner attachment accuracy
and surface roughness. Material and methods 160 premolars were divided into 4 groups (n …

Introduction We aimed to compare the shear bond strength (SBS) forces on the enamel
surface with 2 adhesives after treatment with various radiation doses. Methods A total of 120 …

Objective: To evaluate the effect of 10% papain as an enamel deproteinising agent on the
shear bond strength (SBS) of three orthodontic adhesives: Transbond XT, resin-modified …

This study aimed to investigate whether a phosphoric acid (H3PO4) solution containing
