Key Points

Biofilm adhesion on orthodontic archwires varies significantly across materials, impacting orthodontic treatment.
The study found higher biofilm adhesion on specific archwires, with variations noted in adhesion levels of about 30%.
Evaluation was conducted through in vivo methods using a spectrophotometer to measure biofilm presence and density.
Choosing the right orthodontic materials may reduce biofilm-related complications and improve patient outcomes.

Implication

In vivo study evaluates biofilm adhesion on orthodontic archwires, suggesting material choices impact treatment outcomes.
