Enamel surfaces with sem after the application of different in vivo stripping methods
(2009) Kilinc D.D.; Hamamci O.
Aim: Space gaining method is one of the long standing methods used in orthodontics that still preserves its currency. The space method applied as made from the approximal surfaces of teeth is among the alternative methods developed against other methods. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the results of morphological changes formed by classical metal band stripes and air rotor stripping (ARS) over teeth between 1st and 3d months by checking Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Materials and Methods: 40 premolar teeth of 10 patients were applied stripping process using ARS and metal band stripes as a space method from mesial and distal surfaces. The mesial and distal surfaces of 40 premolar teeth were examined by extracting teeth in the 1st and 3rd months. Results: In terms of surface roughness statistically significant difference was found in the stripping process made by ARS and metal band stripes. (p<.05) However when it was evaluated according to the 1st and 3rd months no statistically significant difference was found. (p>.05) Conclusion: As a result of our research we were convinced that ARS system will be more beneficial in terms of patient comfort and hygiene motivation after the treatment.
