The effect of electric spot-welding on the mechanical properties of different orthodontic wire alloys

The effect of electric spot-welding on the mechanical properties of different orthodontic wire alloys

The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that there is a direct relationship between surface structure and tensile strength of orthodontic alloys submitted to different levels of welding current. Three types of alloys were assessed. One hundred and eight cross-sectional test specimens ("...
