Article Synopsis
- This study analyzed how different constant temperatures (12°C, 37°C, and 50°C) affect the unloading force of three types of nickel-titanium (NiTi) archwires used in orthodontics.
- Three types of archwires tested included superelastic, heat-activated at 25°C, and thermally activated at 35°C, with results measured through a three-point bending test.
- Findings revealed that all wire types demonstrated thermal sensitivity, with unloading forces increasing at higher temperatures and varying responses among the types, particularly showing the greatest sensitivity in the thermally activated Ti-Lite® wire.
