Shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets to fluorosed enamel
Objectives: To evaluate the influence of dental fluorosis and etching time on the shear bond strengths (SBSs) of orthodontic brackets to human enamel. Methods: A total of 48 human maxillary central incisors, extracted for periodontal reasons were used. The sample was divided into three experimental groups (n = 16): gro...
