Pattern of stress distribution in different bracket–adhesive–tooth systems due to debonding load application

Conclusion Despite the overall similarity in stress distribution pattern of different bracket–adhesive–tooth systems, some differences on pattern of stress distribution and magnitude of stress were also observed. This may bring about more susceptibility of curved enamel surface teeth to lower bond strength, damage and fracture than flat enamel surface teeth.
