M an’s long history of technologic development has been marked by a continuing search for improved materials. This effort has resulted in vast arrays of new materials which have affected nearly every aspect of contemporary life, including orthodontics. A significant advance in orthodontic materials was made in the late 1930’s and 1940’s when stainless steel wire and appliances became widely ava...
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...
OBJECTIVES Since the low friction of NiTi wires allows a rapid and efficient orthodontic tooth movement, the aim of this research was to investigate the friction and surface roughness of different commercially available superelastic NiTi wires before and after clinical use. The surface of all of the wires had been pre-treated by the manufacturer. MATERIALS Forty superelastic wires (Titanol Lo...
Index words: Delayed hypersensitivity, nickel allergy, nickeltitanium, nickel-free Address for correspondence: Gerry Rahilly, Orthodontic Department, Leeds Dental Institute, Clarendon Way, Leeds LS2 9LU, UK. Email: [email protected] 172 G. Rahilly and N. Price Features Section JO March 2003 increased by mechanical irritation, skin maceration, or oral mucosal injury, all of which may occ...
THE PURPOSE OF THIS LONGITUDINAL PROSPECTIVE RANDOMIZED STUDY WAS TO EVALUATE THE RELIABILITY OF TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF ORTHODONTIC RETAINERS IN CLINICAL USE: a multistrand stainless steel wire and a polyethylene ribbon-reinforced resin composite. Moreover the level of satisfaction of the patient about the esthetic result was also analyzed by means of a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). 34 patients ...
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...
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. This case reports a complication arising from the accidental loss of an archwire...
The majority of dental trauma involves anterior teeth, especially the maxillary central incisors. A mandibular incisor fracture with or without pulp tissue involvement is considerably less common. Different approaches for treating these fractured teeth have been reported in the literature. The type of treatment rendered depends mainly on the extent of fracture, pulp involvement, radicular fract...
This study examined the effect of cariogenic and erosive challenges (CCs and ECs, respectively) on the degradation of copper-nickel-titanium (CuNiTi) orthodontic wires. Sixty wire segments were divided into four treatment groups and exposed to CCs, ECs, artificial saliva, or dry storage (no-treatment control). CC and EC were simulated using a demineralizing solution (pH 4.3) and a citric acid s...
AIM Oral environment of the mouth is a suitable place for biodegradation of alloys used in orthodontic wires. The toxicity of these alloys namely nickel and chromium has concerned the researchers about the release of these ions from orthodontic wires and brackets. The aim of this study was to measure the levels of nickel and chromium ions released from 0.018" stainless steel (SS) and NiTi wires...
