Torque capacity of metal and polycarbonate brackets with and without a metal slot [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to investigate slot deformation and the equivalent torque capacity of polycarbonate brackets with and without a metal slot in comparison with those of a metal bracket. For this purpose, the expansion characteristics and, in a further investigation, the labial crown torque of an upper central incisor, were measured in a ...

The cytotoxicity of orthodontic metal bracket immersion media [PDF]
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the cytotoxic effects of four different orthodontic metal bracket immersion media on primary human oral gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) and one permanent human osteogenic sarcoma cell line (U2OS). Four different metal brackets (Unitek, Tomy, Ormco, and Dentaurum) were immersed in buffer solutions of NaHNO(3)
