“…However, the bond strength of fluoride‐releasing orthodontic bonding agents is substantially lower than those of conventional resins. Moreover, the long‐term beneficial effect of fluoride releasing adhesives has not been sufficiently established for some applications, such as glass ionomer cements or fluoride‐releasing resinous adhesives, since most of the fluoride is released within the first few days or weeks. A daily intake of probiotic lozenges was not found to affect the development of WSL during orthodontic treatment with fixed appliances.…”

“…Corrosion of the orthodontic bracket‐arch wire interface has received attention after the corrosion products of the bracket base were shown to diffuse into the bonding adhesive. The property of the materials and the engagement of the wire into the bracket slot using stainless steel or elastic ligatures creates an environment in which various forms of corrosion can develop.…”

“…As an example, a traditional bracket is composed of 2 metallic phases: a low modulus of elasticity stainless steel alloy comprising the base, which presumably facilitates easy debonding after treatment, and a high modulus steel alloy for the tie wings. These minimise deformation caused by the engagement of an arch wire and ensures that stress is transferred from the activated arch wire through the bracket slot to the tooth. The tie wing alloy is more vulnerable to corrosion because of the presence of copper in its composition.…”

“…Orthodontic appliance components are united by brazing alloys of nickel, silver, or gold and are dependent on the manufacturer and so performance differences are expected during intraoral use. The clinician should be familiar with the composition of silver‐based alloy solder and, more particularly, with the quantities of copper and zinc.…”

“…Later, this method was complemented by the introduction of instrument analysis, such as atomic emission or absorption spectroscopy for metals. High‐performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography–mass spectroscopy were also used for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of immersion media, saliva, blood, or urine to determine the concentrations of polymer by‐products. In vitro quantification of the metallic content of biologic fluids cannot withstand scrutiny regarding the methodological soundness of the approach.…”
Adverse effects can arise from the clinical use of orthodontic materials, due to the release of constituent substances (ions from alloys and monomers, degradation by-products, and additives from polymers). Moreover, intraoral aging affects the biologic properties of materials. The aim of this review is to present the currently identified major adverse effects of the metallic and polymeric components found in orthodontic appliances and materials. Corrosion in metallic orthodontic attachments releases metal ions, mainly iron, chromium, and nickel. The latter has received the greatest attention because of its reported potential for an allergic response. The formation of an oxide layer may inhibit the outward movement of ions, thereby acting as an obstacle for release. Titanium alloys have superior corrosion resistance than stainless steel. The efficiency of polymerisation is considered an essential property for all polymers. A poor polymer network is susceptible to the release of biologically reactive substances, such as bisphenol-A (BPA), which is capable of inducing hormone-related effects. The close proximity of a light-curing tip to the adhesive, pumice prophylaxis after bonding, indirect irradiation and mouth rinsing during the first hour after bonding may decrease BPA release. The adverse effects of some orthodontic materials should be considered during material selection and throughout orthodontic treatment, in order to minimise possible undesirable implications.
