Özet: Having properly aligned teeth and a beautiful smile with orthodontic treatment is desirable for many individuals. The demand for orthodontic treatment has increased with every passing day and brought many innovations together. In the past, the bands that were pasted with cement on the teeth and applied force were not both aesthetic and difficult to get detailed tooth movements and tired. Over the years, the bands have left their place to bracket systems and it has become an important issue to be able to connect the brackets to the tooth surface satisfactorily in the field of orthodontics. New developments in adhesive systems, bracket types, bracket base structures, different enamel surface etching methods, improvements in the used polymerizers have helped to improve the bonding strength between tooth and bracket. All these developments enabled the orthodontist to meet less difficulty in the treatment process and to perform faster treatments.
