1. Tooth preparation1.1 Clean teeth, rinse with water, and then isolate with cotton balls;1.2 Dry teeth completely with oil - and water-free gas.
2. Acid corrosion
2.1 It is recommended to use about 37% phosphoric acid etch to etch teeth;
2.2 Rinse with clean water after acid etching.
3. Pre-treatment
3.1 Dry tooth surfaces thoroughly;
3.2 Apply a thin layer of uniform penetrant to the bonding surface of each tooth to be bonded.

5.2 Adjust the bracket to the best position, press the bracket tightly to keep it close to the tooth surface, and gently remove excess adhesive around the bracket;
5.3 Light source and illumination time. Light source: halogen lamp or LED lamp; Ceramic bracket: the illumination time is 20 seconds, the light source is opposite the bracket, the distance is about 2mm; Metal bracket: about 15 seconds on each side, the lighting time is about 30 seconds, and the light source is about 5mm above the contact point between teeth.
Note: The illumination time may need to be extended depending on the output of different light sources.
5.4 The orthodontic wire can be installed after the last bracket is glued.
6. Remove bonding
6.1 Special instruments and recommended methods shall be used to remove brackets;
6.2 Tungsten carbide low-speed mobile phone is used to remove the adhesive remaining on the tooth surface;
