Abstract :

In dentistry, titanium and its alloys are utilized for implants due to their unique blend of chemical, physical, and biological properties. These alloys are employed in both cast and wrought forms. The fractures of the alloy-abutment interface, abutment, or implant body are caused by the long-term presence of corrosion reaction products and ongoing corrosion. Implant failure results from the combined effects of stress, corrosion, and bacteria.
