Evaluate the effectiveness of silver nanoparticles incorporated into the primer orthodontic Transbond XT in preventing enamel demineralization adjacent to brackets.
Randomized, split mouth, double-blind, placebo controlled trial. Half of the mouth was applied silver nanoparticles incorporated into the primer orthodontic Transbond XT and the other half with primer-bond as placebo. Evaluate the effectiveness with Diagnodent - pen in preventing enamel demineralization adjacent to brackets.
