Evaluation of Water Sorption and Solubility and FTIR Spectroscopy of Thermoplastic Orthodontic Retainer Materials Subjected to Thermoforming and Thermocycling
Due to the fact that retainers are often recommended for a lifetime, their endurance and longevity are directly related to the quality of the materials used in their production. Our study examined the water sorption, water solubility, and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy of six commerc...
