ABSTRACT:

In this study commercially available single elastomeric module of three different companies for their force degradation were compared over a period of four weeks and the degree of stretch required for a single elastomeric module to deliver an optimum sustained orthodontic force were determined.

KEYWORDS: Elastomeric module; Force Decay; Optimal Orthodontic Force; Stretch, Jig.
