What type of adhesive do orthodontist use?
Orthodontists typically use a light-cured composite resin adhesive to bond brackets to teeth. This type of adhesive is applied to the bracket and then cured using a special light, which causes it to harden and form a strong bond between the bracket and the tooth. The adhesive is typically made of a mixture of acrylic resin and glass filler particles, which gives it strength and durability.
