Disease relevance of Titanium nickelide

• The aim of this study was to determine the sagittal, transverse, and vertical effects of a Nitanium maxillary expansion appliance on dentofacial structures in patients with bilateral posterior cross bites in the permanent dentition [1].

High impact information on Titanium nickelide

• The surface properties of silica and titania are mainly determined by the presence, density, and type of terminal hydroxyl groups (Si-OH "silanol" and Ti-OH "titanol") [2].
• The purpose of this study was to use the more recently developed technique of temperature-modulated DSC (TMDSC) to gain insight into transformations in 3 nickel-titanium orthodontic wires: Neo Sentalloy (GAC International, Islandia, NY), 35 degrees C Copper Ni-Ti (Ormco, Glendora, Calif) and Nitinol SE (3M Unitek, Monrovia, Calif) [3].
• Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used to determine the transition temperature ranges (TTR) of four types of super-elastic orthodontic nickel-titanium coil springs (Sentalloy) [4].
• Once the canines were retracted with sliding mechanics (continuous arch wire group) or with force driven retraction loops (sectional mechanics group), the anterior teeth were then retracted with 300 gm Sentalloy coil springs (GAC international, Central Islip, N.Y.). The extent of root resorption of the anterior teeth was evaluated radiographically [5].
• Sentalloy expansion springs (GAC, Central Islip, N.Y.) delivering 100 cN were inserted on a segmented arch between the central lower incisors [6].

Associations of Titanium nickelide with other chemical compounds

• Ethylene oxide sterilization of Sentalloy wires did not significantly alter the tensile strengths of that wire [7].

Gene context of Titanium nickelide

• Groups A and B were stainless steel archwires from Ormco (Glendora, Calif) and Dentaurum (Ispringen, Germany), respectively, and groups C and D were both NiTi archwires with Ormco's copper NiTi and Tomy's Bioforce sentalloy, respectively [8].
• The mean percent recovery ranged from 89% to 94% for Ni-Ti, nitinol, Orthonol, Titanol, Sentinol Light, and Sentinol Medium alloys [9].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Titanium nickelide

• Skeletal expansion occurred simultaneously with dentoalveolar expansion in the transverse plane with the Nitanium maxillary expansion appliance [1].
• Alternatives to extraction orthodontics: a nitanium palatal expander [10].
• The control group (n = 28) comprised of cases where no appliances were used while the experimental group (n = 28) had Begg brackets bonded on the upper teeth in conjunction with Sentalloy archwire [11].
