Abstract

Fixed orthodontic can increase salivary flow rate because of its mechanical stimuli and as the body’s physiological response that regard as a foreign in the body. The aim of this research is to know the effects of the fixed orthodontic techniques to salivary flow rate and calcium. This study used observational analytic with cross sectional design using samples of saliva stimulated from 66 young subjects (18-25 years old), divided into groups of controls, edgewise technique and straight wire technique. The subjects obtained by consecutive sampling method based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The salivary flow rate and saliva’s calcium had significantly difference (p=0.001) for all groups. Salivary flow rate and calcium showed significant differences between subjects with fixed orthodontic of edgewise technique and straight wire technique (p <0.05). This study concludes that fixed orthodontic with edgewise technique and straight wire technique influences the salivary flow rate and calcium. Mechanical stimulation process in patients with edgewise technique is higher than straight wire technique.
