Salivary pH changes under the effect of stainless steel versus elastomeric ligatures in fixed orthodontic patients: A single-center, randomized controlled clinical trial

2021-06-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Fluctuations in pH of saliva during a prolonged treatment course influences the enamel demineralization progress, which is one of the complications of fixed orthodontic treatment. This randomized clinical trial aimed to evaluate and compare the short-term effect of stainless steel (SS) versus elastomeric (EM) ligatures on salivary pH in patients scheduled for fixed orthodontic treatment.Metho...
