Abstract:
Bonding techniques in lingual orthodontics differ slightly from their counterparts in labial treatment, although there are many shared features. If protocols are followed correctly, bonding outcomes are very predictable and lingual bracket bonding can be integrated into a mixed orthodontic practice with the minimum of disruption. Here, we highlight the fundamentals of both chemical and light/dual cure bonding procedures using lingual appliances, and discuss special bonding circumstances. Although not exhaustive, this article will provide essential information for those operators embarking on the bonding of lingual appliances.
