An investigation into the use of cellulose nanofibre mats in the production of an aesthetic orthodontic bracket

Nanofibres can be produced from the electrospinning of a number of solutions. The aims of this investigation were to develop a novel methodology for production of a 3D mesh of cellulose acetate nanofibres. This mesh was then used to reinforce a chemically cured Bis-GMA resin matrix to produce a prot...
