Metal ion elution, including Cr and Ni from dental orthodontic stainless steel, accounts for some allergies. In this study, a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) on a wire surface is proposed for suppressing such elution. This method involves modifying the stainless steel surface using phosphonic acid containing a long alkyl chain. The uncoated and coated wires are immersed in different acidic solutions, and the supernatant is analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry after 1-4 weeks. The results reveal that Cr and Ni ion elution is significantly suppressed by SAM modification. These findings will help in minimizing potential allergens from dental orthodontics.
