[Development and clinical application of dental spot weld & heat-treat tri-uses device]

A spot weld & heating treatment tri-uses device based on modern mechanical-electric technique, was developed for dental spot weld, stainless steel orthodontic wire heating-reversion and Ni-Ti orthodontic wire heating-overload metamorphism. The device will be very helpful instrument in orthodontic clinic. The paper not only described the operating methods of the device, but also discussed the Performance-improved principles of stainless steel orthodontic wire and the principles of heating overload metamorphism of Ni-Ti orthodontic wire.
