CPP-ACP enamel pre-treatment for prevention of white spot lesions before bonding metallic orthodontic brackets vs No enamel pre-treatment before bonding, or treatment with another material: Shear bond strength (SBS) of metallic orthodontic brackets
- Population
- Extracted permanent human teeth (enamel); sound or demineralized
- Intervention
- CPP-ACP enamel pre-treatment for prevention of white spot lesions before bonding metallic orthodontic brackets
- Comparison
- No enamel pre-treatment before bonding, or treatment with another material
- Outcome
- Shear bond strength (SBS) of metallic orthodontic brackets
CPP-ACP enamel pre-treatment before bonding did not significantly affect the shear bond strength of metallic orthodontic brackets (MD 1.163 MPa, 95% CI -0.321 to 2.648; ungraded).

How reviews are matched to this question
Reviews word the same question differently. Four decision models (TypeSafe's Jev, Liquid AI's d1-ultra, SubQ Snap and Baseten's Elephant) judged each wording of the population, intervention, comparator and outcome against the others; two wordings count as the same when at least three of them agree and none clearly disagrees, and findings count as this question only when all four elements match. Timing, setting and subgroup never split a question: they are shown on each finding.
