Description
Byron Carpio-Salvatierra and co-authors test a new orthodontic primer for gluing metal brackets to teeth in the lab. Strong, well cured glue keeps braces in place through treatment. Their 2026 study compares the new primer, Ambar APS Ortho, with two rivals across many setups.
The team used 240 sound upper premolars split into 24 groups by primer, curing time, lamp type, and storage state. Bond strength was measured by a shear test, and cure degree by a light based scan. The new primer gave clearly higher bond strength on both lamps and the highest cure degree. Longer curing, ten seconds over three, raised cure degree for all primers.
