Description
Summary:Copper barrel brandy can be taken orally with dilution of bisleri water or soda water and without dilution. People clipped with orthodontic wires may take copper barrel brandy orally, with dilution of without dilution. How far the orthodontic wires will be affected by these items? To find an answer the present research work is undertaken. Corrosion resistance of orthodontic wires made of Ni-Ti alloy and Ni-Cr alloy in artificial saliva in the absence and presence of copper barrel, water and soda water has been evaluated by AC impedance spectra. It is generally observed that Ni-Ti alloy is more corrosion resistant than Ni-Cr alloy in artificial saliva in the presence of copper barrel, water and soda water. When orthodontic wire made of Ni-Ti is immersed in artificial saliva, the charge transfer resistance (Rt) value is 31945Ohmcm2 . When it is immersed in copper barrel + artificial saliva (AS) system, Rtvalue increase to 80000Ohmcm2 . When it is immersed in soda water + artificial saliva (AS) system, Rtvalue increase to 76450Ohmcm2 . When it is immersed in water + artificial saliva (AS) system, Rtvalue increase to 82620Ohmcm2 . On the other hand, when orthodontic wire made of Ni-Cr is immersed in artificial saliva, the charge transfer resistance (Rt) value is 80930Ohmcm2 . When it is immersed in copper barrel + artificial saliva (AS) system, Rtvalue decrease to 11104Ohmcm2 . When it is immersed in soda water + artificial saliva (AS) system, Rtvalue decrease to 10437Ohmcm2 . It implies that the people who have been clipped with orthodontic wire made of Ni-Ti alloy can take copper barrel in any form, namely, with dilution or without dilution. The people who have been clipped with orthodontic wire made of Ni-Cr alloy should avoid taking copper barrel in any form, namely, with dilution or without dilution.
