Effect of fluoride prophylactic agents on the mechanical properties of nickel-titanium-based orthodontic wires.
132
TL;DR: It is suggested that using topical fluoride agents with Ni-Ti wire could decrease the functional unloading mechanical properties of the wire and contribute to prolonged orthodontic treatment.

Corrosion of orthodontic appliances--should we care?
TL;DR: The purpose in this article was to consider the literature to date with regard to potential mechanical, clinical, and health implications of orthodontic corrosion.
223
Ex vivo surface and mechanical properties of coated orthodontic archwires
TL;DR: Coated archwires have a low aesthetic value, with 25 per cent of the coating lost within 33 days in vivo, and produced lower unloading force values than as-received coated archWires with conventional ligation.
Orthodontic wires and its corrosion—The specific case of stainless steel and beta-titanium
Saúl Castro,Maria João Ponces,Jorge Dias Lopes,Mário Vasconcelos,Maria Cristina Figueiredo Pollmann +4 more
TL;DR: The role of pH and fluoride ions on the corrosion of wires is discussed in this article, and the desirable features and properties to be considered in the search for the ideal wire are addressed.

An overview of orthodontic material degradation in oral cavity.
TL;DR: During orthodontic treatment, use of nickel free, better corrosion resistance alloys and less use of fluoride containing toothpaste or gel is expected.

Mechanical properties and surface characterization of beta titanium and stainless steel orthodontic wire following topical fluoride treatment.
TL;DR: The results suggest that using topical fluoride agents with beta titanium and stainless steel wire could decrease the functional unloading mechanical properties of the wires and potentially contribute to prolonged orthodontic treatment.

A review of contemporary archwires: Their properties and characteristics
TL;DR: Because an ideal material has not yet been found, archwires should be selected within the context of their intended use during treatment, with emphasis on specific properties and characteristics, such as strength, stiffness, range, formability, and weldability.

Chinese NiTi wire--a new orthodontic alloy.
TL;DR: NiTi wire is highly useful in clinical situations that require a low-stiffness wire with an extremely large springback and can be deflected 1.6 times as far as nitinol wire or 4.4 times asFar as stainless steel wire without appreciable permanent deformation.

Corrosive properties of fluoride-containing odontologic gels against titanium
TL;DR: Rp and I(cor) measurements by the voltammetric and analysis confirm the excellent resistance of titanium in physiological solutions and show that a fluoride-containing dental gel, which is a fluoridated and acidic preparation, is significantly harmful with respect to the corrosion process of titanium.

Corrosion of stainless steel, nickel-titanium, coated nickel-titanium, and titanium orthodontic wires
Hera Kim,Jeffery W. Johnson +1 more
TL;DR: The results indicate that corrosion occurred readily in stainless steel and variations in breakdown potential of nickel titanium alloy wires differed across vendors' wires.
