Objective:To assess and compare the shear bond strength of the bracket utilising a self-etching priming system and a traditional etching technique in three tooth locations: the incisal, middle, and cervical regions.Material and method:Thirty extracted human premolar teeth were employed, and the teeth were split into six groups. Three groups underwent conventional etch system bonding in the middle, incisal, and cervical thirds of the teeth. In a similar manner, the teeth in the other three groups were cemented in three different areas of the tooth using self-etching primer. Next, the shear bond strength of every group was assessed. For bonding, standard MBT metal premolar brackets were utilised.Result: Statically significant difference was found among the bond strength in cervical, middle and incisal third and also amongst conventional etching and self-etching primer. Limitation: In present study different tooth types are not included.Conclusion:Bond strength is strongest in the incisal region, followed by the middle and cervical third, according to scanning electron microscopy, which also shows that all tooth types' cervical sections have less etch quality and more aprismatic enamel.It was also found that bond strength was more with conventional etchant when compared with self-etching primer.
