Assessing the fatigue resistance of <scp>NiTi</scp> instruments: A <scp>DSC</scp> ‐based approach to understanding temperature effects
The cyclic fatigue strength of NiTi instruments depends on temperature, highlighting the limits of assessing performance at a single predefined temperature. DSC offers key insights into phase transformation, enabling a better interpretation of mechanical properties beyond mechanical testing alone. Integrating metallurgical characterization with cyclic fatigue analysis improves the evaluation of NiTi instruments, ensuring a more accurate understanding of their mechanical performance.
