Four groups, each one with 12 premolars were elected randomly and cut by an <em>ISOMET</em> machine. The samples were stored at 100% relative humidity at 37° C for 7 days before the test applying tension at the speed of 0.1 cm/min until it broke in a <em>Tinius Olsen Testing Machine</em>. The findings of this study showed that the preparation of enamel fluorosis may be critical for efficient adhesion to the enamel surface, especially using <em>Soflex</em> discs. This study showed that the preparation of enamel in teeth with dental fluorosis was best when the roughness of enamel the surface increased, thus obtaining higher bond strength using <em>PQ1.</em></span>}, number={15}, journal={Odovtos - International Journal of Dental Sciences}, author={Rivera Cerdas, Andrea}, year={2014}, month={Mar.}, pages={69–74} }
