Metal Ions Leachables And Microstructure Of Fake Orthodontic Braces: An In Vitro Study

Fake braces are an artificial orthodontic device that are now gaining attention and becoming increasingly popular among teenagers and youths in Malaysia. It involves illegal practitioners with doubtful quality and standard of tools and materials which have not been sterilised. Therefore, this stu...
