The Design of Buccal Canine Retraction Springs for Removable Orthodontic Appliances

British Journal of Orthodontics, 1977
The Characteristics of three types of buccal canine retraction springs are investigated. In general, these springs are unduly stiff and so excessive forces can be applied by even small activations. Additionally, they can be unstable vertically. By careful attention to geometry, it is possible to design a spring with acceptable clinical properties.

Designing Caspase-1 kinase inhibitors to control acute inflammation of Orthodontic Appliances.

Proceedings of The 17th International Electronic Conference on Synthetic Organic Chemistry, 2013
Orthodontics is a branch of dentistry that uses tensile force from intraoral or extraoral orthodontic appliances to resolve dental malocclusions. The use of tensile force seeks to remodel periodontal ligament and alveolar bone however this process initiates acute inflammation and necrotic conditions in the periodontium.
