Reduction in the modulus of elasticity in orthodontic wires

A. J. Goldberg, R. Vanderby Jr and C. J. Burstone

The modulus of elasticity of stainless steel orthodontic wires was found to be 20% below the normally assumed range of 19.3 to 20.0 x 10(4) MPa (28.0 to 29.0 x 10(6) psi). Use of the latter value can result in significant computational errors in orthodontic applicance mechanics. The lower modulus was attributed to severe cold drawing.
