Adhesive Strategies of Bonding to Fluorosed Teeth
Dental fluorosis is one of the most common tooth pathologies affecting esthetic appearance in northern Thai population. Certain populations, especially those who live nearby highly fluoridated natural water resources, usually develop dental fluorosis by drinking such water. Furthermore, dental fluorosis can also cause by improper usage of high fluoride concentration materials for dental prevention. Patients who are suffering from dental fluorosis usually present to dental practice with esthetic concerns. To improve their esthetic appearance, direct resin bonding is one of the most common treatment options. Since fluorosed teeth somehow affect their ability to bond to resin composite with the use of adhesive systems, it is important to understand the nature of fluorosed enamel and dentin and their mechanism of adhesion. Thisreview literature presents proper adhesive strategies in bonding to fluorosed enamel and dentin for a better clinical outcome.
