A comparative study of the physical and elastic properties of new generation elastomeric ligatures with conventional elastomeric ligatures
Context: One of the most common methods of securing arch wires to orthodontic brackets is the application of elastomeric ligatures. New generation elastomeric ligatures were introduced to overcome the disadvantages of force decay and staining in conventional ligatures. Aims: The aim was to compare...
