A review of nickel titanium alloy for orthodontic arch wires
Keywords:
biomedical, nickel titanium, biocompatibilityAbstract
NiTi alloys are in demand in commercial and biomedical industries. This article discusses Ni-Ti alloy characteristics and applications. Ni-Ti is a smart material that can demonstrate thermal-induced shape memory at lower operational temperatures. Its biomedical applications are described. Biomedical industry end products must pass many biocompatibility testing. Biomedical implants must pass haemocompatibility, lysis and thrombogenicity. All the precise approaches and procedures aid with selection.
