Nitinol's unique properties of shape memory and superelasticity result from a phase transformation within its crystal structure that happens with temperature change. This makes eyeglass frames made from Nitinol can be bent severely out of shape but then return perfectly to normal, which means a nitinol glass frame is ideal for everyone.
Nitinol wire is known as “ memory wire ” or “ smart wire” . As the memory wires try to straighten out, they will exert gradual pressure on your teeth. Pressure over time is how teeth are moved in orthodontia.
Nitinol Wire
The near-atomic ratio of Nitinol (Ti-Ni alloy) was the first material to be used as a shape-memory alloy.

Nitinol's unique properties of shape memory and superelasticity result from a phase transformation within its crystal.
Shape Memory Effect: "Shape Memory" describes the effect of restoring the original shape of a plastically deformed sample by heating it.
Superelastic Effect: An elastic (reversible) responses to an applied temperature, caused by a phase transformation between the austenitic and martensitic phases of a crystal.
MS: The starting temperature of SMA transform from austenite to martensite
MF: The ending temperature of SMA transform from austenite to martensite
AS: The starting temperature of SMA transform from martensite to austenite
AF: The ending temperature of SMA transform from martensite to austenite
