Abstract:Aim and Objective:
The aim and objective are to evaluate the effect of prophylactic agents on the surface morphology of different types of orthodontic wires of different dimensions at two different temperatures.
Materials and Methods:
Stainless steel (SS), NiTi, and titanium-molybdenum alloy (TMA) wires of 0.016 inch round and 0.017 inch × 0.025-inch dimensions were immersed in prophylactic agents such as 0.2% NaF, 0.2% CHx and 1.23% APF for 1.5 h at 37… Show more
