What are the benefits of pure titanium dentures? Pure titanium can be used to make crowns, bridges and brackets for movable dentures. Compared with traditional dental metal materials, titanium metal has excellent physical and chemical properties, good biocompatibility, small specific gravity, and corrosion resistance. Titanium artificial bones, artificial joints, cardiac pacemakers, artificial tooth roots, etc. have been widely used in clinical practice. .
In addition to excellent tissue affinity, dentures made of pure titanium have the following advantages:
Light weight: The specific gravity of titanium is small, its specific gravity is 1/4 of that of gold alloy and 1/2 of that of cobalt-chromium alloy, so the denture made of pure titanium will be much lighter, which can reduce the burden on the remaining tissue in the mouth. Better comfort.
Moderate hardness: between the enamel and dentin, so the crown made of pure titanium will not wear too much the opposite natural teeth. Using pure titanium to make the post in the root can make the stress conduction in the root more in line with the physiological model and reduce the risk of root fracture. Low thermal conductivity: The crown made of pure titanium can better isolate the hot and cold stimuli, which is beneficial to protect the dental pulp, and there will be no soreness when eating food that is too cold or too hot.
No taste disturbance: Titanium metal has good stability, there is no metallic taste in the mouth, and it does not cause taste disturbance.
Transmissive X-ray: Titanium is semi-transmissive to X-ray, wearing a crown made of pure titanium, when taking X-ray, you can check whether there is caries inside the crown, so that early detection and early treatment can be achieved. Advantages that other metal materials used to make dentures do not have.
Good MRI compatibility: Titanium is a non-paramagnetic metal. Compared with the commonly used cobalt-chromium alloys and nickel-chromium alloys, the artifacts generated during MRI examinations are extremely small, and the impact on MRI examinations is very small. Small. In most cases, it is not necessary to remove pure titanium dentures during the MRI of the head.
