microstructure - Opis:
- Wires used for orthodontic arches play a very important role in the process of orthodontic treatment. In combination with the lock attached to the tooth, they move and align the teeth along the set trajectories. Wires of stainless steel are commonly used in orthodontics for several reasons: they are characterised by high resistance to corrosion, high strength and elasticity, formability and a possibility of obtaining defined properties through cold working and annealing during production process. The purpose of the research presented in the work is the analysis of differences of the selected structural properties in the context of corrosion resistance of the orthodontic wire material. The object of the research was edge arches of the 0.016”x0.022” size made of the stainless steel type AISI 304, provided by two different producers: G&H Orthodontics and Adenta. The research methodology involved analysis of chemical and phase composition of the tested alloy, microscopic tests with application of the light and electron microscopy methods, as well as electrochemical direct current measurements. The research presented in the work has shown significant differences in structural and physical-chemical properties of the orthodontic wires made of AISI 304 type stainless steel. Despite the fact, that the tested arches were manufactured of the theoretically the same materials, but by different producers, they significantly differ in chemical composition, metallurgical purity, phase composition and corrosion resistance. In addition, it is worth noticing that the tested materials, in terms of structure, do not meet the normative requirements obligatory for biomaterials.
