This study evaluates the shear bond strength (SBS) of orthodontic brackets using different bonding techniques in cases of amelogenesis imperfecta (AI). It was found that brackets bonded with sodium fluoride (NaF) and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) conditioning exhibited significantly higher SBS compared to the conventional bonding technique. The results suggest that using 2% NaF gel prior to acid etching improves bond strength in AI cases, potentially reducing failure rates in orthodontic treatments.

An in vitro comparison of shear bond strength using


different bonding techniques in amelogenesis imperfecta
cases
ABSTRACT
Introduction: The objective of this study is to assess and compare shear bond strength (SBS) using different bonding techniques in
amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) cases.
Materials and Methods: Totally 30 extracted premolars from AI cases and 10 premolars from normal cases were obtained. The first
group of (10) normal samples was treated with 37% orthophosphoric acid (H3PO4), second group (10) of AI cases was treated with conventional
technique (37% H3PO4), third group (10) with sodium hypochlorite (5% NaOCl), and fourth group (10) with 2% sodium fluoride (2% NaF). Brackets
were bonded using Transbond XT light curing adhesive and SBS was measured using the Instron universal testing machine.
Results: Statistically highly significant difference observed between the strengths of all four groups (P < 0.01) with the mean highest for control
group followed by NaF conditioning and NaOCl conditioning and least for conventional bonding procedure in AI cases. On pairwise comparison
using Tukey’s post hoc test, statistically highly significant difference was observed between the mean SBS for control group versus Group 2,
Group 3, and Group 4, Group 2 versus Group 3, and Group 2 versus Group 4.
Conclusion: Brackets bonded by conventional technique showed lower SBS as compared to NaOCl and NaF in AI cases. The application
of 2% NaF gel for 4 min before acid etching of hypomineralized tooth surface shows significantly higher SBS as compared to conventional and
NaOCl group in AI cases.
