Frictional resistance of self-ligating versus conventional brackets in different bracket-archwire-angle combinations

OBJECTIVE: To compare the influence of archwire material (NiTi, beta-Ti and stainless steel) and brackets design (self-ligating and conventional) on the frictional force resistance. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Two types of brackets (self-ligating brackets - Smartclip, 3M/Unitek - and conventional brackets...
