Esthetic Archwires in Orthodontics- A Review
The archwire has been an integral part of the orthodontic appliance, ever since Dr. Edward Angle placed the first appliance into the patient’s mouth. The high esthetic demand by the patient, along with the introduction of composite and ceramic brackets initiated research for esthetic archwires to go with these brackets. Esthetic archwires available are

Accidental Swallowing of Orthodontic Partial Archwire
Foreign bodies ingestion or aspiration situations are potential complications during orthodontic treatment. This article presents a case report of an orthodontic patient who accidentally ingested a section of orthodontic wire. The patient was accompanied by radiographs until the foreign body have been deleted.

Near-alpha titanium — a potentially new orthodontic archwire material
Abstract High tensile stainless steels and Elgiloy (a) have been until recently the dominant orthodontic archwire materials. The introduction of Nitinol (b) and T.M.A. (c) has extended the choice. In the present work a new wire near-alpha titanium has been studied.

Effects of intraoral aging of arch-wires on frictional forces: An ex vivo study
Introduction: Archwires act as gears to move teeth with light, continuous forces. However, the intraoral use of orthodontic archwires is liable to surface deposits which alter the mechanical properties of archwires, causing an increase in the friction ...
