Decalcification around brackets is sometimes observed after orthodontic treatment. Fluoride-releasing orthodontic adhesives have been developed in an attempt to reduce the frequency and severity of decalcification. This study evaluated, in vitro, a light-activated, fluoride-releasing composite resin adhesive, FluorEver OBA. The findings indicate that FluorEver OBA released small concentrations of fluoride ions over time. A mean of 2.6 ppm was released on day 1, decreasing to a mean of 0.42 ppm by day 2 and to 0.04 ppm by day 43. The clinical implications of these findings are discussed.
