The effect of zinc oxide nanoparticles deposition for friction reduction on orthodontic wires

open access: yesDental Research Journal, 2013
Background: In the sliding technique, the reduced frictional forces are associated with rapid tooth movements and better control of the anchorage. Recently, wire coating with different nanoparticles has been proposed to decrease frictional forces.

15‐Point versus pass/fail grading in orthodontic education: A randomized controlled trial

open access: yesJournal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives There is a lack of evidence on whether a grading system or a pass/fail system influences manual skills in dental education. This parallel‐group randomized controlled trial aimed to assess the influence of a 15‐point grading system compared with a pass/fail evaluation on the quality of orthodontic appliances in dental education ...
