Comparative evaluation of two cetylpyridinium chloride-based mouthwashes on the mechanical properties and strength loss of elastomeric chains used in dentistry: An vitro study

Objectives: Evaluate the strength degradation of polymeric ligature chains after their immersion in cetylpyridinium chloride-based mouthwashes. Methods: 240 elastomeric samples from four different manufacturers (Rocky Mountain®, Ormco®, Morelli® and Dentaurum®) in two types of configurations (with a...
