Abstract
  Aim: Sliding a tooth along an archwire involves a frictional force, causing a number of adverse effects like anchorage loss, excessive orthodontic forces, prolonged treatment time and damage to the roots. This is especially true in ceramic brackets where the friction is notoriously higher.Recently, wire ...  Read More
