Dimensional variability of orthodontic slots and archwires: an analysis of torque expression and clinical implications

Abstract Background The loss of third-order information in pre-adjusted brackets due to torsional play is a problem in clinical orthodontics. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of slot height, archwire height, width and edge bevel’s radius on the torsional play for three brackets/archw...
