  • The effect of pH, fluoride and tribocorrosion on the surface properties of dental archwires
    Močnik, Petra, 1985- ...
    Nickel-titanium and stainless steel are the most commonly used alloys for orthodontic treatments. Even though both are known to be resistant to corrosion, there are circumstances that can lead to ... undesired situations, like localized types of corrosion attack, wear during sliding of an archwire though brackets and breakdowns due to iatrogenic causes. The aim of this research was to analyse the influence of environmental effects on the corrosion and tribocorrosion properties of NiTi and stainless steel dental alloys. The effects of pH and fluorides on the electrochemical properties were studied using the cyclic potentiodynamic technique. The migration of ions from the alloy into saliva during exposure to saliva with and without the presence of wear was analysed using ICP-MS analyses. Auger spectroscopy was used to study the formation of a passive oxide layer on different dental alloys. It was found that lowering the pH preferentially affects the corrosion susceptibility of NiTi alloys, whereas stainless steel dental archwires are prone to local types of corrosion. The NiTi alloy is not affected by smaller increases of fluoride ions up to 0.024 M, while at 0.076 M (simulating the use of toothpaste) the properties are affected. A leaching test during wear-assisted corrosion showed that the concentrations of Ni ions released into the saliva exceeded the limit value of 0.5 %g/cm2/week. The oxide films on the NiTi and stainless steel alloys after the tribocorrosion experiment were thicker than those exposed to saliva only.
