Force decay and deformation of colored and gray elastomeric ligatures

The purpose of this study was to evaluate force decay, permanent deformation and the relationship between the ligature and the force, of commercially available colored (blue) and gray elastomeric ligatures (GAC, ORMCO, UNITEK) in a simulated oral environment. The initial wall thickness (WT), inside...
