Corrosion behavior of self-ligating and conventional metal brackets

TL;DR: Comparison of metal release in self-ligating and conventional brackets from the same manufacturer proved that the SCs group released more nickel, chromium and iron than the GN group after 7 and 14 days, but less chromium, iron and nickel at the three experimental time intervals.

Comparison of force loss during sliding of low friction and conventional TMA orthodontic archwires: An in vitro study

TL;DR: The friction property of the low friction TMA archwire was superior to the conventional T MA archwire but was still inferior to the stainless steel archwire.

Effect of Bracketsâ Types on the Amount of Movement and Rotation of Canine during Retraction: A Simulated In vitro Study

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the effect of brackets' materials on the distance moved by canine and rotation during sliding in an in vitro study and found that canine moved more with stainless steel brackets with less rotation while it was just the opposite with ceramic brackets.

Blomechanical analysis of arch-guided molar distallzation when employing superelastic NiTi coil springs

TL;DR: Small forces are biologically more favorable and thus should be preferred in the orthodontically effective forces measured, and the mean frictional forces increased, reaching values between 50 and 80% of the applied force of the compression springs.

Routine use of minute forces

TL;DR: A research study on “The Selection of Forces for Tooth Movement” finds that the rate of tooth movement is largely determined by the speed with which the periodontal membrane re-establishes circulation in the areas of pressure and tension.
