Hypersensitivity to an orthodontic bonding agent. A case report

I Hutchinson
Maxillofacial and Orthodontic Department, Coventry and Warwickshire Hospital, U.K.

A case report of a 14-year-old male who developed an allergic reaction shortly after the placement of Edgewise stainless steel orthodontic brackets with Unite, a composite bonding agent, is reported. Patch testing revealed that he was allergic to the set composite and the catalyst paste. The brackets were replaced by stainless steel orthodontic bands cemented with Poly F Zinc polycarboxylate cement which allowed treatment to progress without further incident.
