In vitro evaluation of loop design influencing the sliding of orthodontic wires: A preliminary study
Aim: Resistance to sliding between bracket and wire is present, in a different magnitude, in most orthodontic treatments and it affects the biomechanics of the tooth movement. However, the influence of loop design on resistance to sliding is currently unknown. Methods: In total, 12 stainless steel o...
