Mechanical strength of stainless steel and titanium alloy mini-implants with different diameters: an experimental laboratory study

Abstract Background The mechanical strength of mini-implants is a critical factor due to their small diameters. Currently, it is not possible to state whether there is a relevant difference between the mechanical properties of stainless steel (SS-MIs) and titanium alloy mini-implants (TA-MIs). The o...
