Stiffness comparison of mushroom and straight SS and TMA lingual archwires

Abstract Background The aim of this study is to investigate the relative stiffness of straight and mushroom lingual archwires of different diameters, cross sections and alloys, plotting their load/deflection graphs and using a modified three-point bending test. Methods Fujita’s mushroom archwires an...
