Nickel-Titanium (NiTi) shape memory alloys continue to attract significant attention in medicine due to their superior shape memory and pseudoelastic properties, especially in the fields of cardiovascular surgery and orthodontics [1][2][3][4]. The pseudoelastic behavior stands out in dental applications: for instance, in the case of orthodontic archwires, the pseudoelastic property of NiTi makes the application of constant stress possible over large tooth displacements [1,2], which not only minimizes tissue damage during treatment [5], but also eliminates readjustment procedures -which are quite uncomfortable for the patients -required for archwires made of conventional materials, such as medical grade stainless steel [1,[6][7][8][9]. Specifically,
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
