1. Prophylaxis - Thoroughly clean the teeth to be bonded with pumice
in a rubber cup or bristle brush. Carefully avoid irritating the
gingival tissue since slight bleeding may cause contamination and
could affect bonding quality.
CAUTION: Do not use prophy paste which may contain oils,
since it may leave a film that will reduce etching quality and decrease
bonding strength.
2. Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water. Isolate the teeth and
dry with the air syringe.
3. Apply ETCH-37* directly on the enamel surface,
limited to the area to be bonded for 30 seconds (up to 60 seconds
for deciduous teeth). You can use a foam pellet to carefully dab
the acid onto each tooth to achieve proper acid penetration. Please
do not rub the syringe tip over the enamel to avoid fracture of
the enamel rods. Also do not etch for a period over 90 seconds,
which may cause the formation of insoluble calcium phosphate salt
crystals which may decrease bonding strength.
4. Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water for about 5 seconds on
each tooth. Dry the teeth with oil-free air. The etched areas should
appear dull and frosty white. If not, re-etch areas as needed.
5. Hold bottle at a 45° angle and dispense 1-2 drops of ONE-STEP
into a mixing well. Using a brush, apply a thin coat of ONE-STEP
to the etched enamel.
6. Using a gentle stream, gently but thoroughly air dry to evaporate
solvent.
7. Apply ORTHO BRACKET PASTE LC to the back of the bracket.
Place the bracket on the sealed tooth, gently pressing it to its
final position. Remove the excess material. Be careful to not displace
all the paste from underneath the bracket. With the light probe
as close as possible to the bracket, light cure the bracket for
30 seconds, following the directions below:
- Metal brackets - light cure for 20 seconds from the Incisal
and 10 seconds from the gingival or mesial surfaces.
- Ceramic or Plastic brackets - light cure for 30 seconds through
the archwire slot from the facial surface.
Once the paste has been properly cured, an active archwire can
be placed immediately.
BRACKET REMOVAL:
ORTHO BRACKET PASTE LC can be easily removed with pin and
ligature cutting pliers or other de-bonding devices. Tooth surfaces
may be further cleaned with scaling instruments and polished with
rotary instruments.
NOTE: The intensity of curing lights may vary. For a true
reading, check light intensity before and after curing multiple
brackets. Loss of light intensity can only be detected with a radiometer.
Also check the appropriate curing time indicated by your curing
light manufacturer's instructions for adequate bonding.
STORAGE: Store at room temperature (22°C/72°F).
Refer to individual component labels for specific expiration dates.
PRECAUTIONS: Unpolymerized resins may cause skin sensitization
in susceptible persons. In case of contact with the skin, wash thoroughly
with soap and water.
