AI Article Synopsis

  • The study investigates the bond strength between orthodontic clamps and tooth enamel using two materials: Right-On (an established autopolymerizing compound) and Transbond (a newer photopolymerizing compound).
  • The bond strength was tested by applying horizontal traction with increasing weight until failure occurred.
  • Results were statistically analyzed using the Student's t test to compare the effectiveness of the two compounds.

Article Abstract

The paper examines the bond resistance between the orthodontic clamp and tooth enamel using two different compounds: an autopolymerizing type (Right-On), already widely used in orthodontal practice, and a photopolymerizing type (Transbond) which has been recently introduced into the market. The bond was tested by applying horizontal traction with a progressively increasing weight. The results obtained were compared for statistical significance (Student's t test).
