Role of the smear layer in adhesive dentistry and the clinical applications to improve bonding performance

Japanese Dental Science Review, 2022
Currently, dental adhesives can be divided into two systems; a smear layer-removal approach with etch-and-rinse adhesives or a smear layer-modified approach with self-etching adhesives. After phosphoric acid etching, the smear layer is completely removed.
