Corrosion behavior of self-ligating and conventional metal brackets
OBJECTIVE To test the null hypothesis that the aging process in self-ligating brackets is not higher than in conventional brackets. METHODS Twenty-five conventional (GN-3M/Unitek; GE-GAC; VE-Aditek) and 25 self-ligating (SCs-3M/Unitek; INs-GAC; ECs-Aditek) metal brackets from three manufacturers (n = 150) were submitted to aging process in 0.9% NaCl solution at a constant temperature of 37 ± ...
متن کاملMaxillary canine retraction with self-ligating and conventional brackets.
OBJECTIVE To measure space closure during the retraction of upper permanent canines with self-ligating and conventional brackets. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifteen patients who required maxillary canine retraction into first premolar extraction sites as part of their orthodontic treatment completed this study. In a random split-mouth design, the retraction of upper canines was performed using an ...
متن کاملTorque expression of self-ligating brackets compared with conventional metallic, ceramic, and plastic brackets.
The purpose of this research was to investigate the torque capacity of active and passive self-ligating brackets compared with metallic, ceramic, and polycarbonate edgewise brackets. Six types of orthodontic brackets were included in the study: the self-ligating Speed and Damon2, the stainless steel (SS), Ultratrimm and Discovery, the ceramic bracket, Fascination 2, and the polycarbonate bracke...
متن کاملSelf-ligating vs conventional brackets as perceived by orthodontists.
OBJECTIVE To determine if there are significant clinical differences between self-ligating brackets (SLB) and conventional brackets (CB) during orthodontic treatment, as perceived by orthodontists. MATERIALS AND METHODS A survey was developed and distributed to evaluate how SLB compare to CB in terms of orthodontists' perceptions (n = 430). RESULTS SLB were preferred during the initial st...
متن کاملComparison of frictional resistance between self-ligating and conventional brackets tied with elastomeric and metal ligature in orthodontic archwires
OBJECTIVE To compare the frictional resistance between self-ligating and conventional brackets tied to different types of wire. MATERIAL AND METHODS Abzil Kirium Capelozza (Pattern I) and Easy Clip (Roth prescription) incisor brackets were used. An elastomeric ligature or a 0.10-in ligating wire was used to ligate the wire to the Abzil bracket. Three types of orthodontic archwire alloys were ...
