Abstract
:
The objective of this study was to compare the flexibility and microstructure of 20 gauge round and half-round cast Ticonium clasps with that of the same gauge Ticonium wrought wire clasp. Cast and wrought wire test specimens were processed and prepared for flexibility testing which accomplished by a universal testing machine for recording the load displacement curves. Then, they were mounted, polished and etched for microstructure testing using the metallurgical microscope. The results indicated that wrought wire clasps showed the highest recorded flexibility value, followed by round and then half-round cast clasps. Microstructure photographs revealed a mild difference in granular structure between wrought and both cast clasps as regard grain size, shape and distribution which had been reflected obviously upon flexibility test results. Keywords: Flexibility, Microstructure, Removable partial denture, Round clasp, Half-round clasp, Wrought wire clasp.
