11. ADVANCES IN BONDING AGENTS
MOISTURE RESISTANT ADHESIVES
◦ Hydrophilic attraction of its constituents
◦ Methacrylate functionalized poly alkenoic acid copolymer
◦ Excess water ionizes carboxylic groups forming hydrogen bonded dimers.
◦ APPLICATIONS:
MOISTURE ACTIVE ADHESIVES
◦ Based on cyanoacrytlate formualtions
◦ Pros: Biocompatible
◦ Bonds on composite and ceramic
◦ No discoloration

12. EIGHTH-GENERATION BONDING AGENTS:
◦ Voco America introduced Futurabond DC
◦ penetration of resin monomers and hybrid layer thickness,
◦ which in turn improves mechanical properties of bonding agent.
APC FLASH FREE
◦ A new transparent APC adhesive formulation is contained within a form-fitting
fiber mat on the base of the bracket
◦ Adhesive spreads out and conforms to the tooth surface,
making uniform and consistent contact with no flash to clean.

15. BONDING PROCEDURE
◦ CLEANING:
Polishing is performed using low-speed (>20000 rpm) micromotor using low
abrasive high-quality oil-free pumice flour
◦ ISOLATION FOR BONDING

◦ FROSTY WHITE

17. ACID ETCH PATTERNS
TYPE APPEARANCE
1 Honeycomb appearance with enamel prism centres lost
2 Cobblestone appearance with enamel prism edges lost.
3 Pitted enamel with a map like appearance
4 Granulation of enamel with numerous holes with no preferential
dissolution of cores or peripheries.
5 No prism outlines with smooth and flat enamel surface and
decrease in irregularities for resin penetration
6 Stark difference observed between ground (G) enamel and
unground (UG) enamel surface on application of phosphoric acid
for 90 s

20. ◦ SEALING AND PRIMING
Comprise of monomers, hydrophilic coupling agents (e.g. HEMA)
These are low viscosity resins that are applied as a thin layer with
the help of a micro-brush.
◦ TRANSFER
◦ POSITIONING

24. BONDING TO NON
CONVENTIONAL SURFACES
◦ BONDING TO GOLD :
 intraoral sandblasting
Electrolytoic tin plating
plating with gallim tin solution
Intermediate primers (panavia)
◦ BONDING TO COMPOSITE RESTORATIVES
Upper resin composite layer is removed
Etched
Application of resin
bonding

25. BONDING TO AMALGAM
Lee W. Graber,Robert L. Vanarsdall, Orthodontics Current Principles And Techniques, Sixth Edition 25
Sandblasting with 50 µm aluminium
oxide powder for 3 s and a 30-s waiting.
Use intermediate resins that improve
bond strengths like All Bond 2 (Bisco),
Enhance or Superbond C
Use of newer adhesives that bond
chemically like 4-methacryloyloxyethyl
trimellitate anhydride (4-META)

26. BONDING TO PORCELAIN
Lee W. Graber,Robert L. Vanarsdall, Orthodontics Current Principles And Techniques, Sixth Edition 26
Deglaze the area by
sandblasting with 50 µm
Al2O3 for 3 s
Etch porcelain with 9.6% HFA
for 2 min
Carefully remove gel with cotton
roll and then rinse using high
volume suction.
Dry with air, apply silane
coupling agent
bond bracket conventionally

28. BOND FAILURES
Lee W. Graber,Robert L. Vanarsdall, Orthodontics Current Principles And Techniques, Sixth Edition 28
Adhesive cohesive
POSSIBLE CAUSES OF BOND FAILURE:
TYPES

29. ARI
• Score 0—no adhesive left on the
tooth surface
• Score 1—less than half of
adhesive left on the tooth surface
• Score 2—greater than half of
adhesive left on the tooth surface
• Score 3—all adhesive left on
tooth surface with a bracket mesh
