Adhesive procedures in daily practice: essential aspects.
Adhesive procedures are essential to most restorative protocols used in modern dentistry. Increasing demand and constant interest in new products have stimulated dental manufacturers to produce new adhesive systems and marketing campaigns that announce fast and easy bonding. However, laboratorial and clinical studies show that, usually, ease of application of an adhesive system does not relate to its competence in creating a quality, long-term adhesive interface. This article will present relevant data from the scientific literature to help clinicians understand quality adhesion and achieve excellent results with the current adhesion systems.
