Nickel is one of the most common causes of allergic contact dermatitis and hypersensitivity. In case of stainless steel as biomaterials, the higher the corrosion resistance and the lower the nickel content, the better it is or the human body. However, because nickel plays an essential role in the stabilization of the austenitic phase and the corrosion resistance of stainless steel, it is difficult to remove the nickel from the constituents of stainless steels completely. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate corrosion resistance, cytotoxicity, and mechanical property of super stainless steels, which had high corrosion resistance by synergistic effect of Mo(or W) and N, with respect to nickel content and to evaluate their potential for orthodontic applications. Super austenitic stainless steel(SR-50A) had high nickel content of 22% and super duplex stainless steels nickel contents of 6~10%. Super austenitic and duplex stainless steels had nitrogen contents of above 0.2%. Also, these steels had high Mo or W contents which were able to increase the localized corrosion resistance. In terms of hardness, super stainless steels, which had Vickers hardness values of 374~400 Hv in cold-rolled state and 186~285 Hv in annealed state, exhibited higher values than 316L S. S.. Duplex stainless steels exhibited higher mechanical properties than austenitic stainless steels. In terms of corrosion resistance, super stainless steels exhibited lower passive current density(2.3~3.8 ㎂/cm^2) than pure Ti(6.6㎂/cm^2) in the body-simulated solution and similar potentiodynamic polarization behaviors. Pitting corrosion occurred in 316L S. S. but not in the others. Thus these steels were considered to have high corrosion resistance in the human body. In terms of cytotoxicity, SR-5OA and SAF2507 exhibited none cytotoxicity and the others slight. This results indicated that the cytotoxicity of alloys containing nickel had no relation with nickel content because SR-5OA with the highest nickel content exhibited none cytetoxicity In conclusion, it is considered that super stainless steels with high corrosion resistance and good biocompatibility can be used for orthodontic applications because of the enhanced passive film by high addition of Mo, W, N, etc.

When stainless steels are used in the human body, the nickel ion released from the alloys over a short or long term can cause such adverse effects as allergies, dermatitis, asthma. Although the higher the corrosion resistance of stainless steels and the lower the nickel content, the better it is for the human body, since nickel has an essential role in the stabilization of the austenitic phase and the corrosion resistance of stainless steels, it is difficult to remove nickel completely. In this regard, the purpose of this study was to investigate corrosion resistance, cytotoxicity and mechanical properties of super stainless steels, and upon this basis, to evaluate their potential for orthodontic applications. Super austenitic stainless steels had higher content of nickel(17~20 wt%) than super duplex stainless steels (7~10 wt%) or super ferritic stainless steels (lower than 3 wt%). Super austenitic and duplex stainless steels had nitrogen content of above 0.2 w%. These steels had high Mo or W contents of which synergistic effect together with N increases localized corrosion resistance. In terms of hardness, super stainless steels exhibited higher value than 316L S. S. and two times higher than cp Ti(grade II). Austenitic and duplex stainless steels exhibited better mechanical properties. Super stainless steels exhibited low passive current density (3~4 μA/㎠) and similar potentiodynamic polarization behaviors among themselves. Thus, these steels are considered to have high corrosion resistance in the human body-simulated solution. Pitting corrosion occurred in 316L S. S.. A3 containing the highest nickel content, as well as SAF2507 exhibited none cytotoxicity, and the others, slightly. This indicates that the cytotoxicity has no direct relation with nickel content itself in these alloys. Super stainless steels with both high corrosion resistance and good biocompatibility are expected to be used for orthodontic applications by virtue of the passive film attribute enhanced by synergistic effect of Mo+N or by high addition effect of Cr+W.

Various kinds of orthodontic appliances have been developed for ideal tooth movement during orthodontic treatment. The orthodontic appliances made of metals are bands, arch wires, brackets and miniscrews as orthodontic anchorage. Generally, these appliances are made of stainless steel, pure titanium, Ni-Ti and TMA with the proper biocompatibility. However, localized corrosion of these materials can frequently occur in the particular environment. Super stainless steels, recently developed, have good corrosion resistance to reduce metal ion release induced by many kinds of corrosion. Recently, it has been reported that nickel ion release from orthodontic appliances affect the prevalence of nickel sensitization; however, there has been some controversy about nickel hypersensitivity to orthodontic appliances containing nickel. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the microhardness, nickel ion release, corrosion resistance and cytotoxicity of 4 types of super stainless steels and 316L stainless steel as the control group according to nickel contents, and to determine the acceptability as the new material for various kinds of orthodontic appliances. All super stainless steels showed higher microhardness than 316L stainless steel, SR-3Mo showed especially the highest microhardness. In anodic polarization test, corrosion resistance was high in order of SR-50A, SFSS, SR-6DX, 316L stainless steel, SR-3Mo. There was no increase in nickel ion release from SR-50A, SR-6DX, 316L stainless steel with immersion time in artificial saliva; whereas there was some increase from SFSS and SR-3Mo with immersion time. All super stainless steels showed very low cytotoxicity regardless of nickel contents although SR-3Mo showed relatively higher cytotoxicity than the others. It is concluded that SR-50A among super stainless steels has the highest corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. It is undesirable to consider the alloys with high nickel content to release lots of nickel ion.

Heat treatment is applied to orthodontic wires in order to relieve the stress that results from cold working and the orthodontists manipulations. In this study, 4 types of wires were heat-treated in an air, argon or vacuum environment, and were either cooled in a furnace or a water bath. Corrosion properties of the heat-treated wires were investigated by potentiodynamic method. The difference of corrosion resistance between the wires heat-treated in an ambient according to cooling methods was not significant. After heat-treated in an ambient, both water-cooled and furnace-cooled wires had a similar and low corrosion resistance. The difference of corrosion resistance between the wires heat-treated n a vacuum environment with cooling methods was significant. After heat-treated in a vacuum, the furnace-cooled wires had high corrosion resistance, but the water-cooled wires low. After heat-treated in a vacuum, argon, or air environments, the water-cooled wires had low corrosion resistance. It was considered because the irregular and unstable film was formed on the surface of the wires when cooled in a water bath. The control wires showed a low current density and high pitting potential, but most of the heat-treated wires did high current density and low pitting potential except for the wire heat-treated in vacuum and then cooled in a furnace. Conclusively, orthodontic wires are considered to have to be heat treated in vacuum condition or inert gas environment and then to be cooled in a furnace in order to inhibit surface oxidation, minimize the decrease of corrosion resistance and improve the mechanical properties.

Heat treatment is applied to orthodontic wires in order to relieve the stress that results from cold working and the orthodontist's manipulations for making loops, helical springs and archforms. Conventionally, the wires are heat-treated for a few minutes at higher temperature in an ambient. In this study, 4 types of wires were heat-treated in an air, argon or vacuum environment, and were either cooled in a furnace or a water bath. Mechanical properties of the heat-treated wires were investigated. Stress relief heat treatment increased the microhardness, strength and Young's modulus of the orthodontic wires. The increased factions of microhardness, maximal strength, yield strength and Young's modulus of the orthodontic wires by the heat treatment were approximately 0.4∼22.9%, 2.9∼14.8%, 3.7∼14.4% and 2.5∼9.0%, respectively. Yield strength and microhardness of the heat-treated wires were significantly different with the cooling methods. Microhardness and yield strength of the water-cooled wires were lower than those of the furnace cooled wires. It was considered because thermal stress was introduced to the wire by the rapid cooling. Stress relief heat treatment in and ambient oxidized the surface of the wires, and mechanical properties and surface cleanness of the water-cooled wires were lower than those of the furnace-cooled wires. Conclusively, orthodontic wires have to be heat-treated in vacuum condition or inert gas environment after plastic deformation and to be cooled in the furnace, in order to inhibit surface oxidation, minimize the decrease of corrosion resistance and improve the mechanical properties.

Metallic orthodontic appliances are known to release metal ions in an oral cavity. It is not advisable that toxic corrosion products derived from the appliances is absorbed into the body. Metal ions release from orthodontic appliances is known to have large effects on the result of orthodontic treatment and systemic health. Metal bracket and wire were made of super stainless steel(S32050) with high corrosion resistance. The corrosion resistance and ion release property of S32050 and conventionally used appliances were examined. Four types of wire were ligated in either super stainless steel(SB) or Tomy bracket(TB) with O-ring, and then each group was immersed in an artificial saliva at 37℃ for 12 weeks. Amount of released metal ions was measured with immersion time by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectroscopy and surface morphology was investigated. S32050 showed the low passive current density of about 1 μA/㎠ and the stable passive region to a high potential in artificial saliva. S32050 appliances did hardly release nickel ions in artificial saliva. S32050 wire(SRW) and NiTi wire(NW) didn't show significant difference of Ni ion release with immersion time, meanwhile, Remanium wire(RW) showed significant difference in 12 weeks. Ni ion releasce from the brackets didn't show any significant difference with immersion time and between SB and TB. Amounts of Ni ion released from TB-SRW showed significant difference in 12 weeks, those from TB-RW showed significant difference from 4 weeks later and highest release among all groupsin12weeks. TB-NW released little Ni ion for all immersion time and showed significant difference from 4 weeks later, TB-TW(TMA wire) showed significant difference in 12 weks. SB-SRW didn't show any significant difference and SB-RW signigicant difference in 12 weeks,but lower compared with TB group. SB-NW and SB-TW didn't show any significant difference. Corrosion products didn't be observed in mostly groups during the immersion time, except that in TB-RW, they were observed on the bracket surface between O-ring and wire from 8 weeks later. Super stainless steel wire had good corrosion resistance compared with stainless steel wire, and it is believed that it can be used as orthodontic material for bracket and wire.
