Key Points

Universal adhesives simplify orthodontic bonding to enamel and restorative materials, enhancing procedural efficiency.
Only clinical studies indicate the need for evaluating the effectiveness of these adhesives in practice.
Assessment includes comparing bonding performance across diverse materials such as conventional restoratives.
Findings suggest that while promising, further clinical studies are crucial to support wider adoption of universal adhesives.

Implication

Systematic review shows simplified orthodontic bonding in enamel and restorative materials, indicating more clinical studies are needed.

Abstract

UAs may simplify orthodontic bonding across enamel and restorative surfaces without separate primers, but more clinical studies are needed.
