Influence of Pre-Etched Area and Functional Monomers on the Enamel Bond Strength of Orthodontic Adhesive Pastes
This study was performed to investigate the influence of pre-etching area and functional monomers in orthodontic adhesive pastes on enamel bond strength. Bovine enamel was partially pre-etched with phosphoric acid for 30 s over areas with a diameter of 1.0, 2.0 or 3.0 mm, and metal brackets were the...
