Corrosion and biocompatibility of orthodontic wires

open access: yesJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 1999
With the increasing number of orthodontic treatments using devices containing nickel and the growing prevalence of nickel allergy in the average population, biocompatibility studies of these devices have become a topic of major interest. The corrosion behavior of orthodontic wires is a decisive factor determining their biocompatibility.

A comparative analysis of the frictional resistance of esthetic orthodontic wires

open access: yesRevista de Odontologia da UNESP, 2019
Introduction The orthodontic movement is directly influenced by the ability of orthodontic wires to slide through brackets and tubes. Therefore, the main concern during orthodontic movement corresponds to the frictional forces generated at the bracket ...
