Using a dental etchant to prepare enamel for the attachment of a bonded restoration is a standard part of restorative dentistry. These acidic materials remove the outermost layer of the tooth surface and expose a rough, porous layer that provides greater surface area for the bonding process. It is important to use dental etchants correctly so the acid is not left on the enamel surface too long.
