| Research Abstract |
The retentive force of wire clasp made of a low Young's modulus β-type Ti-6Mo-4Sn alloy (β-Ti-alloy) was evaluated using a piezoelectric transduce. There were no significant differences between the retentive force of a β-Ti-alloy wire with a 0.50 mm undercut and that of a cobalt-chrome alloy (Co-Cr-alloy) wire with a 0.25 mm undercut. The β-Ti-alloy wire could be applicable for abutment teeth with large amount of undercuts.
