Effect of mint extract on the ion release from orthodontic wires
Keywords:
effect mint extract, orthodontic wires, orthodontic patientsAbstract
Aim: The high incidence of nickel (Ni) allergy and the increasing use of Ni‑containing and Cr-containing dental biomaterials have been of growing concern. The purpose of this investigation was to analyse and evaluate the rate of Ni and Cr ion release from different types arch wires used in orthodontics , when immersed in Mint extract. Materials and Methods: Two groups of arch wires (nickel-titanium [NiTi], SS) were stored in Mint extract and tested at different intervals i.e., 1 hour, 6 hour, 12 hour, 24 hour and 1 week. The ions released from the sample (Ni and Cr ions) were evaluated using an atomic adsorption spectrophotometer. Results :Ion release was insignificant in the solutions compared to the control solution Conclusions: It can be concluded from our study that the amount of metal ions released was minimal in Mint extract and it can be safely used as a routine mouthwash in Orthodontic patients.
