Corrosion resistance of orthodontic wires made of SS 316 L alloy in artificial saliva in the absence and presence of a soft drink namely sprite has been evaluated by polarisation study, when corrosion resistance increases, the linear polarisation resistance value increases and the corrosion current value decreases, the present study reveals that; the corrosion resistance of SS 316 L alloy decreases in the following order; sprite only > sprite + Artificial saliva > Artificial saliva. It is concluded that people who have been implanted with orthodontic wires made of SS 316 L alloy need not dither to take the soft drink sprite orally.
