Chemical analysis and Vickers hardness of orthodontic mini-implants

EDS analysis of the surfaces showed titanium and oxygen to be the only elements in all groups, and all test group samples showed the presence of titanium hydride on the surface,

The metallographic analysis of transversely sec- tioned mini-implants showed that all samples pre- sented patterns of Alpha-Beta phase, according to the “Technical

Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the preparation time and the amounts of apically extruded debris and irrigant using different nickel- titanium instrumentation

Three types of orthodontic 0.016-inch diameter wires were tested: stainless steel, conventional superelastic nickel-titanium and thermally activated nickel-titanium, from three

Sintering of mixed titanium and calcined powders at 1000 ºC, led to the formation of composites of titanium, hydroxyapatite, titanium oxide, and calcium titanate..

The objective of this review was to explore the different properties of titanium and how by changing them, after a titanium implant being introduced to living bone tissue,

Following the same line of investigation on the electrodeposition of DLC films from a liquid phase, and considering that titanium and its alloys are of the most used materials

The objective of this study was to evaluate whether the behavior of four different brands of beta-titanium bent into an elaborate design (T-loop spring) are sim- ilar when
