Nano- and microscale evaluation of human enamel after different debonding methods

Key Points

This research assesses the effects of different debonding methods on human enamel.
Conducted a comparative analysis of debonding techniques.
Measured enamel damage using nano- and microscale evaluation methods.
Faster debonding methods like HS-TCB resulted in greater enamel damage.
Gentler methods showed less damage but took longer.
Emphasizes the importance of enamel preservation in clinical practices.

Abstract

Debonding methods vary in their impact on enamel. Faster techniques, such as HS-TCB, cause greater damage, whereas gentler methods are slower but safer. Clinicians should prioritize enamel preservation over speed.
