Abstract

Aim: The aim of this review is to discuss about orthodontic adhesives and to discuss in detail about their influence on the enamel and colour stability.

Objective: To list out the different adhesive available till today and how these affect the colour and structural changes in an enamel.

Background: Orthodontics typically involves the use of braces for aligning teeth. Braces consist of brackets that are bonded to the teeth, and arch wires that are threaded through the brackets. Brackets are bonded to the surface of teeth with orthodontic adhesive. Bonding of orthodontic brackets to the tooth enamel has been an important issue since the introduction of direct bonding in orthodontics. Since then, many new bonding agents have been developed such as composite resins, conventional glass ionomer cements, resin-modified glass-ionomer cements and polyacid modified composites (compomers) with different polymerization mechanism such as chemically, light or dual curing. orthodontic cements, adhesive resins, and hybrid cement-resin combinations offer improved physical properties and clinical benefits.

Reason: This review is mainly done for better assessment of benefits of various adhesive materials.

Keywords: Adhersives, water soluble cement, light cured cements
