An investigation of tensile strength of dental solder joints.

Tensile specimens of dental solder joints were tested to determine the effect of gap distance on the strength of solder joints. Two dental alloys were used; a Type III gold alloy and a gold-palladium (Au-Pd) alloy. The Type III alloy was joined with the recommended gold solder. The Au-Pd alloy was joined using preceramic and postceramic application soldering techniques. Gap distances of 0.13 mm, 0.5 mm, and 1 mm were used with each soldering technique. All solder specimens were machined to a uniform diameter and then tested for tensile strength. It was concluded that: 1. There was a significant increase in strength for the Type III gold as the gap distance was increased. 2. The trend toward stronger joints at narrow gap distances for Au-Pd alloy joined with presolder was not statistically significant. 3. The trend toward stronger joints at wide gap distances for the Au-Pd alloy joined with the postsolder was not statistically significant. 4. The postsolder joints were statistically stronger than the presolder joints. 5. The trends observed could be partially explained in terms of competing effects of yield strength (triaxially), wettability, and void or inclusion content at the various gap distances.

[The dental soldering by means of high frequency induction heating (author's transl)].

The authors examined the methods of high frequency induction soldering, especially Loop-method, other than the gas flame soldering which was known generally. The details which was done are: (1) about the form of induction coil, and the relative places of the coil and restrative appliance, and some supplementary appliances of them. (2) about strength of soldered joints of Co-Cr wire using silver solder and Pd-solder, and observation on the corrosion of soldered-joints by the scanning electron-microscope. (3) about the comparison of the characteristics of Co-Cr wire by means of high-frequency induction heating and gas-flame one. (4) about the examples of soldering of porcelain crown-bridge and clasp wire attached on the dental cast, and possibility of soldering techniques of them on the dental cast. The authors found that the high frequency induction method was preeminent from the other method on the point of (a) the characteristic of heated wire, (b) the strength of soldered joints, (c) the easiness of operating of them, and (d) the possibility of soldering using the high-melting point of Pd-solder, and the soldering of them on the dental cast. Therefore we can enough respect the application on the dental area of this apparatus and this techniques of the high-frequency induction soldering.

Dissolution rate of cadmium from dental gold solder alloys.

The dissolution rate of cadmium from six different dental gold solder alloys was determined in an in vitro potentiostatic study. The measurements were made in the potential range 740--880 mV and attempts have been made to extrapolate the results to a potential region that might in reality occur in the oral cavity. For comparison the dissolution rates of copper and zinc were also determined. Electrochemically the most interesting quantity was the logarithm of the dissolution rate because it is a linear function of the applied potential. This linear relationship was given by the Tafel equation. The dissolution rate of cadmium was shown to be rather small even under circumstances which may be said to represent very unfavourable conditions within the oral cavity.

Cadmium

Dissolution and uptake of cadmium from dental gold solder alloy implants.

Pure metallic cadmium was irradiated by means of thermal neutrons. The irradiated cadmium (115Cd) was placed in bags of gold foil and the bags were implanted subcutaneously in the neck region of mice. Two and 3d respectively after implantation the mice were killed, the bags removed and the animals subjected to whole-body autoradiography. The autoradiograms revealed an uptake of 115Cd in liver and kidney. In another experiment specimens of a cadmium-containing dental gold solder alloy, a cadmium-free dental casting gold alloy and soldered assemblies made of these two alloys were implanted subcutaneously in the neck region of mice. The animals were killed after 6 months; cadmium analysis showed significant increases in the cadmium concentration in liver and kidney of those mice which had been given implants of gold solder alloy. The study clearly shows that due to electrochemical corrosion cadmium can be released from implants and accumulated in the kidneys and the liver.

[Mechanic-technological and metallographical studies on soldering of dental alloys].

It can be proved that the reliability of soldering is in practice not very high, as properties of solidity and the quality of compounds very greatly. This is unavoidable in spite of the most careful execution of the welding and observation of the corresponding soldering directions. Low sigmaB-values are attributable to: 1. the insufficient filling of the soldering space (ca. 80%); 2. many lacunae in the solder commissures, which partly communicate with one another; 3. small diffusion zones and poor wettability in case of the pairing of the materials Co-Cr-Mo/Au-solder.
