Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the elemental composition, corrosion resistance, and mechanical properties of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) retainers versus conventional fixed retainers (FRs).
Methods: Eight different retainer wires were investigated. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy was used to determine the elemental composition. Leakage was analysed according to ISO 10271:2020 guidelines. Hardness was tested using the Vickers method with a load of 0.3 kg. The tensile force and tensile strength were evaluated. Multiple comparisons among wires of hardness, tensile force, and strength were conducted using the Welch t-test, with Bonferroni correction.
Results: Nickel was present in all wires. The CAD-CAM-FR wire, which contained more nickel than the other wires, had no measurable leakage. The gold-plated wires had the highest total leakage, but did not exceed the ISO standard limit. The hardness of the stainless-steel twisted wires was the highest and that of the CAD-CAM-FR wire was the lowest. The tensile strength of the CAD-CAM-FR wire was significantly lower than that of the other wires and similar to the other twisted-wire retainers.
Conclusion: The CAD-CAM-FR wire is likely to have high corrosion resistance and flexibility due to its low hardness.
目的:研究计算机辅助设计和计算机辅助制造(CAD-CAM)保持器与传统固定保持器(FR)的元素组成、耐腐蚀性和机械性能:方法:研究了八种不同的固位体钢丝。采用能量色散 X 射线光谱法确定元素组成。根据 ISO 10271:2020 指南对渗漏进行分析。硬度测试采用维氏方法,载荷为 0.3 千克。对拉力和拉伸强度进行了评估。采用韦尔奇 t 检验法对钢丝的硬度、拉力和强度进行多重比较,并进行 Bonferroni 校正:所有钢丝中都含有镍。CAD-CAM-FR 焊丝比其他焊丝含更多的镍,但没有明显的渗漏。镀金金属丝的总泄漏量最高,但未超过 ISO 标准限值。不锈钢绞线的硬度最高,CAD-CAM-FR 线的硬度最低。CAD-CAM-FR 金属丝的抗拉强度明显低于其他金属丝,与其他扭转金属丝保持器相似:结论:CAD-CAM-FR 金属丝的硬度较低,因此可能具有较高的耐腐蚀性和柔韧性。
