Tribological behavior of micro/nano structured tantalum surfaces by anodization method
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of surface roughness induced by anodization, on the tribological properties of tantalum, particularly its static friction behavior, was studied and it was found that static friction coefficient showed a propotional relationship to surface roughs.
Dissertation
A study into the effects of different ligation techniques on mandibular incisor alignment
TL;DR: Ligation with the tighter figure of eight module configuration has no clinically significant effect on the rate of lower incisor alignment and it seems that figure ofEight ligation does not hinder the alignment of the teeth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Frictional Resistance in Conventional Brackets with Different Stainless Steel Wires.
TL;DR: The study concluded that 0.018" SS (3M) is better for individual canine retraction than the other wires used in the study because it has the least frictional resistance.

A Comparative Study of Static and Kinetic Frictional Resistance during the Sliding of Arch Wires through Orthodontic Brackets, using Different Methods of Ligation, in the Dry State
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared static and kinetic frictional resistance between arch wires and brackets, using different methods of ligation (elastomeric ties, low friction elastomerics ties, stainless steel ligature, active and passive self-ligating brackets).

A study on kinetic frictional properties in Begg/KB orthodontic appliances at posterior sites
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the kinetic frictional force between the recent orthodontic appliances for posterior sites: the by-pass loop-KB buccal tube system (loop-KB tube system) and the conventional bypass clamp-round tube systems (clampround tube system), and elucidated the frictional properties of the loop-kb tube system.

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.
