Comparison of deproteinization agents on bonding to developmentally hypomineralized enamel

Conclusions Papain-based papacarie could be an alternative deproteinization agent for bonding dental adhesive to HE. Clinical significance Papain-based papacarie, a natural deproteinization agent and a proven chemo-mechanical caries removal agent could be an alternative to NaOCl for enhancement of bond durability of adhesive restorations to HE.
