Microstructural and mechanical characterization of contemporary lingual orthodontic brackets.
OBJECTIVES To investigate the composition and the microstructural and mechanical characterization of three different types of lingual brackets. MATERIALS AND METHODS Incognito™ (3M Unitek), In-Ovation L (DENTSPLY GAC) and STb™ (Light Lingual System, ORMCO) lingual brackets were studied under the scanning electron microscope employing backscattered electron imaging and their elemental composit...
متن کاملCustomized brackets and archwires for lingual orthodontic treatment.
After 20 months of clinical testing and more than 600 bonded arches, brief interim conclusions can be drawn on treatment with a new lingual bracket system, one that differs fundamentally from conventional appliances in both design and manufacture. The demand for maximum individuality is met by using state-of-the-art computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing technology to fuse the 2 nor...
متن کاملDental Hygiene and Orthodontics: Effect of Ultrasonic Instrumentation on Bonding Efficacy of Different Lingual Orthodontic Brackets
Dental hygienists are often faced with patients wearing lingual orthodontic therapy, as ultrasonic instrumentation (UI) is crucial for oral health. As the application of external forces can lead to premature bonding failure, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of UI on shear bond strength (SBS) and on adhesive remnant index (ARI) of different lingual orthodontic brackets. 200 bovin...
متن کاملOrthodontic Metallic Lingual Brackets: The Dark Side of the Moon of Bond Failures?
Lingual orthodontics, among both young and adult patients, increased in popularity during last years. The purposes of the present investigation were to evaluate the shear bond strength (SBS) values and Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI) scores of different lingual brackets compared with a vestibular control bracket. One hundred bovine teeth were extracted and embedded in resin blocks. Four different ...
متن کاملCaries outcomes after orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances: do lingual brackets make a difference?
Orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances is considered a risk factor for the development of white spot caries lesions (WSL). Traditionally, brackets are bonded to the buccal surfaces. Lingual brackets are developing rapidly and have become more readily available. Buccal surfaces are considered to be more caries prone than lingual surfaces. Furthermore, lingual brackets are shaped to fit the ...
