Abstract

The frequent demand for aesthetics in adults has resulted in dynamic changes in the methods and appliances with which orthodontic treatment is carried out, from braces welded to metal rings to clear aligners. With these new developments in technology and the continued demands of clinicians, advances were also made in bonding materi- als. Particularly challenging is the bonding of brackets to the surfaces of prosthetic restorations made of different types of ceramics, where their glass surface is not suitable for resin penetration, so there is a higher failure rate com- pared to bonding brackets to enamel. It mainly depends on the type of ceramic, the preparation of their surface, the bonding material, the type of brace and other factors. This review of the literature aims to analyze the factors that af- fect the shear bond strength (SBS) of orthodontic brack- ets attached to the surface of different types of ceramics used for prosthetic tooth restoration. Through this, we aim to contribute in determining a more appropriate way for bonding orthodontic brackets to the surfaces of ceramic prosthetic restorations.
