Following immersion in the mouthwashes, orthodontic brackets were bonded to enamel surfaces. Then, the brackets were debonded using a universal testing machine. The specimens were evaluated with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and adhesive remnant index (ARI) score was assessed. One-way ANOVA and Tukey test were used for statistical analysis and P&lt;0.05 was considered significant.\r\nResults: The SBS of the experimental groups decreased compared to the control group. The highest SBS mean value was observed in the controls and the lowest was found in the 0.2% povidone-iodine group. Significant differences in SBS values were found between the 0.2% povidone-iodine group and the 1.5% hydrogen peroxide group when compared to the control group (P=0.023, P=0.028, respectively). SEM analysis revealed similar characteristics among the groups, with a closer resemblance between the chlorhexidine and control groups. Additionally, these groups exhibited greater etching depth compared to the other groups.\r\nConclusion: Our findings highlight the importance of careful selection and application of mouthwashes in orthodontic procedures. While 1.5% hydrogen peroxide and 0.2% povidone-iodine may have some impact on bond strength, their use can still be considered acceptable within defined limits.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.18502\/fid.v20i42.14108","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,20]],"date-time":"2023-11-20T03:12:25Z","timestamp":1700449945000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["The Effect of Recommended Mouthwashes on the Shear Bond Strength of Orthodontic Brackets During the Covid-19 Pandemic: An In Vitro Study"],"prefix":"10.18502","author":[{"given":"AmirHossein","family":"Mirhashemi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rashin","family":"Bahrami","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"7770","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,20]]},"container-title":["Frontiers in Dentistry"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/publish.kne-publishing.com\/index.php\/fid\/article\/download\/14108\/13212","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/publish.kne-publishing.com\/index.php\/fid\/article\/download\/14108\/13212","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,25]],"date-time":"2026-02-25T09:49:06Z","timestamp":1772012946000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/publish.kne-publishing.com\/index.php\/fid\/article\/view\/14108"},"secondary":[{"URL":"https:\/\/fid.tums.ac.ir\/index.php\/fid\/article\/view\/4446","label":"UNIVERSITY"}]},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,20]]},"references-count":0,"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.18502\/fid.v20i42.14108","relation":{},"ISSN":["2676-296X"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2676-296X","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2023,11,20]]}}}
