| Abstract | Objectives To evaluate the effect of the universal and rapid autoclave cycles on the mechanical properties and surface roughness of nickel-titanium archwires following clinical use. Material and methods Thirty-six NiTi archwires (0.016 × 0.022 inch) were equally divided into a control group (Group A) and 2 experimental groups (Group B & C). Wires in group A were tested in the “as-received” form. Wires in the two other groups were installed in patients mouth for 4 weeks, and then autoclaved using the rapid-cycle (Group B) or the universal-cycle (Group C). All wires were subjected to 3-point bending test to calculate the elastic limit, modulus of elasticity, spring-back, yield strength, resilience and toughness. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used for surface roughness qualitative and quantitative analysis. Results Group B showed significantly higher values of elastic limit, modulus of elasticity, resilience, yield strength and toughness than the other two groups. No significant differences were detected between groups A and C (P > 0.05). Group B showed significantly lower average surface roughness than the other two groups, but no significant differences were detected between groups A and C (P > 0.05). Conclusions The mechanical properties and surface roughness of clinically used NiTi wires were less affected by the universal-cycle than the rapid-cycle autoclaving. However, the difference between the effect of both autoclave cycles was diminutive. Clinical relevance The mechanical properties and surface roughness of the tested NiTi wires were not notably altered by clinical use and autoclaving. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
