Corrosion and biocompatibility of orthodontic wires
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.

The Eulerian buckling test for orthodontic wires [PDF]
Orthodontic treatment is mainly dependent on the loads developed by metal wires. The load developed by a buckled orthodontic wire is of great concern for molar distalization and cannot be simply derived from mechanical properties measured through classical tests (i.e. tensile, torsion, and bending).

Microbial corrosion of orthodontic wires
To evaluate microbial corrosion by weight loss, microbial corrosion and elemental analysis of NiTi and stainless wires after period of 2 months in streptococcus mutans containing media. Percentage change in weight after 2 months is 1.7% and 0.8% in NiTi & SS respectively.

An Ingested Orthodontic Wire Fragment: A Case Report [PDF]
Accidental ingestion or inhalation of foreign bodies has been widely documented, including incidents which occur whilst undertaking dental treatment. Most ingested objects pass through the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) spontaneously, but approximately 10%–20% need to be removed endoscopically and 1% require surgery.
