Abstract
Metal components form a key part of orthodontia. Gold, stainless steel, nickel titanium alloys, among other metallic biomaterials, have been part of the orthodontic treatment kit since the twentieth century. These materials and in particular Nickel Titanium, possesses great properties and have been the corner stone of many orthodontic treatments. But, these metals have disadvantages that can cause difficulties for the treatment. Poor friction control, allergic reactions, and metal ionic release are some of the most common disadvantages found when using metallic alloys for manufacturing orthodontic appliances.In order to conquer such vulnerability, research has been piloted at aiming diverse approaches, such as coatings and surface treatments, which have been established to render these materials more appropriate for orthodontic applications. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of the coating and surface treatment methods performed on metallic biomaterials.
