Surface characteristics of retrieved coated and nickel-titanium orthodontic archwires.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of oral fluids and archwire-bracket friction on the surface characteristics of NiTi alloy orthodontic archwires with/without aesthetic coating, in vivo for 2-3 months. MATERIALS AND METHODS Different cross-sections of NiTi Archwires (DENTSPLY GAC International) and Titanol Cosmetic Archwires (FORESTADENT® USA Inc.) were examin...
متن کاملComparison of frictional forces between aesthetic orthodontic coated wires and self-ligation brackets
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of polymer- and rhodium-coated wires compared to uncoated wires by measuring the frictional forces using self-ligation brackets. METHODS 0.016-inch nickel titanium (NiTi) wires and 0.017 × 0.025-inch stainless steel (SS) wires were used, and the angulations between the brackets and wires were set to 0°, 5°, and 10°. Upp...
متن کاملThe effect of Teflon coating on the resistance to sliding of orthodontic archwires.
Teflon is an anti-adherent and aesthetic material. The aim of this study was to evaluate, in vitro, the influence of Teflon coating on the resistance to sliding (RS) of orthodontic archwires. For this purpose, Teflon-coated archwires were examined using frictional resistance tests by means of a universal testing machine and compared with conventional uncoated wires. Twelve types of archwires wi...
متن کاملComparison of Mechanical Properties between Different Orthodontic Stainless Steel Archwires
Introduction: The Damon system recommended the use of revolutionary, hightechnology Damon edgewise 0.019” x 0.025” orthodontic stainless steel archwires (OSSA) for major mechanics and finishing and claimed that this new archwires offer greater efficiency during orthodontic treatment. No study has been carried out to compare this relatively new archwires to other popular OSSA already in the mark...
متن کاملNi-Ti orthodontic archwires at different temperatures
Orthodontic mechanotherapy encompasses the use of several archwires during speci c stages of treatment. Metallic orthodontic appliances consist of bands, arch wires, ligature wires, hooks, tubes, brackets, and springs are daily used in orthodontic practices for the correction of malocclusions in patients ( Oh et al. , 2004 ; Verstrynge et al. , 2006 ; Sabane et al. , 2009 ). One of the most im...
