Indirect orthodontic bonding with drop-shaped hot glue tray: a simple and cost-effective technique
Despite being associated with more accuracy, the indirect bonding procedure is not yet the gold standard, probably because of sensitivity of the numerous variables that must be controlled.

Effect of activation and preactivation on the mechanical behavior and neutral position of stainless steel and beta-titanium T-loops [PDF]
Objective: To quantify, for each activation, the effect of preactivations of differing distribution and intensity on the neutral position of T-loops (7-mm height), specifically the horizontal force, moment to force (M/F) ratio, and load to deflection ...

Boosting Mechanoluminescence Performance in Doped CaZnOS by the Facile Self‐Reduction Approach
Self‐reduction primarily enhances mechanoluminescence intensity by deliberately introducing lattice defects, which increase structural distortion and amplify the piezoelectric response, thereby improving the force‐to‐light conversion efficiency. Additionally, self‐reduction optimizes the local distribution of Mn2+ ions, promoting energy concentration ...
