“…Pithon et al (12) (2013), searched in vitro effect of mouthwashes with and without bleaching agents on the force of elastomeric chains. From 4 groups that were selected for this study, two groups were exposed to two types of commonly used mouthwashes (Plax and Listerine), and two groups were exposed to mouthwashes containing bleaching agent (Plax Whitening and Listerine Whitening).…”

Context: One of the most important aims in orthodontic treatment is to apply a light continuous force to achieve maximum effective tooth movement with minimal side effects (optimal tooth movement). It is obvious that elastomeric chains are the most popular method of space closure, but they undergo force decay during time. Force decay behavior of elastomeric chains is influenced by various factors. It is crucial for every practitioner to know about these products and factors affecting them. Evidence Acquisition: So we searched English articles published in Pubmed between 2005 -2016 with keyword "orthodontics, elastomeric chain". Results: 25 articles were selected for comprehensive reading according to the inclusion criteria. Some factors such as aging process, production technique, pre-stretching effect, design and type of chains, in-vivo effects and microbial contamination were discussed. Conclusions: By reviewing these articles, we know more about force decay pattern of elastomeric chains. Most of articles said the same force decay pattern for these elastomeric products. We know more about environmental conditions affect their features. This can help practitioners to use chains , in a better way.

“…(5) However, they are not considered ideal materials due to the decline in force required for efficient tooth movement. (10) There is no scientific evidence for the optimum force magnitude for orthodontic tooth movement. (13) Previous studies have recommended forces between 150 and 200 g for retracting the canine.…”

“…It was concluded that the presence of bleaching agent has no influence on the force degradation of elastomeric chains. (10) The effect of aerated drinks on force decay of elastomeric chains was tested. Chains were divided in four groups: distal water, lemon based drinks, orange based drinks and cola drinks groups.…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of some carbonated drinks on the force decay properties of commercially available elastomeric chains. 200 short elastomeric chains of two types, conventional and memory chains, were evaluated under the same conditions (150-200 gm at 25 mm). The samples were divided in five groups (40 chains for each group). The control group represented by artificial saliva and four test groups represented by orange based drinks, lemon based drinks, diet pepsi and regular pepsi. The Force was measured at five different time intervals: At initial, 24 hours and 7, 14 and 21 days by a digital force gauge. The result showed that there were significant differences among groups. Statistically significant effects of time on force decay were seen in all groups. Statistically significant difference was found between conventional and memory chains.

ResumoObjetivo: Avaliar os efeitos de diferentes bebidas alcoólicas sobre a força de decaimento de elásticos ortodônticos. Material e método: Em estudo laboratorial, foram testados 7 grupos de amostra, sendo: 1 grupo controle representado pela água destilada, e 6 experimentais: 2-Wisky, 3-Conhaque, 4-Vodka, 5-Cerveja, 6-Cachaça e 7-Vinho. Utilizou-se gabaritos para realizar a submersão das cadeias nas soluções de bebidas alcoólicas durante 30 segundos, uma vez ao dia nos grupos experimentais. A medição de força foi realizada com um dinamômetro digital em seis períodos diferentes 0, 1, 7, 14, 21 e 28 dias. Resultado: Não houve diferenças significativas entre os tratamentos nos momentos baseline, 7 dias, 14 dias e 28 dias. Foram observadas diferenças estatísticas entre o grupo 7 e os demais no momento 24 horas e entre o grupo 1 e os demais no período 21 dias. No período 28 dias não houve diferenças significativas no padrão de força entre todos os grupos (p<0.05) Conclusão: As bebidas alcoolicas não exercem influência na degradação da força dos elásticos em cadeia.Descritores: Ortodontia corretiva; elastômeros; bebidas alcóolicas. AbstractObjective: To evaluate the effects of different alcoholic beverages on the decline in force of orthodontic elastics. Material and method: In a laboratory study, 6 groups of alcoholic beverages were tested. Control group (Group 1) was composed of distilled water. Experimental groups were Whisky (Group 2), Brandy (Group 3), Vodka (Group 4), Beer (Group 5), Sugar Cane Spirit/Rum (Group 6), Wine (Group 7). In the experimental groups, templates were used to enable elastics to be submerged in the alcoholic beverages for 30 seconds once a day. Force was measured with a digital dynamometer in six different time intervals: baseline, 1, 7, 14, 21 and 28 days. Result: There were no significant differences between the treatments in the time intervals: baseline, 7, 14 and 28 days. There were statistical differences between Group 7 and the others in the first 24 hours, and between Group 1 and the others after 21 days. After 28 days, there were no significant differences in the force pattern among all groups (p<0.05). Conclusion: Alcoholic beverages had no influence on the decline in force of the chain elastics.
