It is the aim of all clinicians to accomplish biological tooth movement, which implies the use of low, continuous force. Constant unrelented search for a better wire, which can deliver optimal orthodontic force, has led to the invention of a lot of orthodontic wires such as Stainless steel, Beta Titanium, Nickel Titanium and multi stranded wires. In this study, the loading and unloading properties of 0.016 inch, 0.016x0.022 inch and 0.017x0.025 inch dimensions of stainless steel, conventional NiTi, Super elastic NiTi, and TMA arch wires were determined by means of a modified three point bending test for two inter bracket widths of 5 mm and 6.5 mm for deflection of 1 to 3 mm. The applied forces dependence on cross-sectional size differs from the linear-elastic prediction in super elastic NiTi wires. The stainless steel wires had the highest force values on all the three dimensions and cross section. On loading and unloading, TMA wires had force values in-between stainless steel, conventional NiTi and super elastic NiTi. The conventional NiTi had much lower force values compared to stainless steel and TMA and were linearly progressing compared to Super elastic NiTi. On loading and unloading the super elastic NiTi had force values in the range of conventional NiTi and had constant forces on higher deflection. The studies showed that the force value was comparatively higher in 5 mm inter bracket width than the 6.5 mm inter bracket width for all the cross section and dimension of wires.
