Abstract
This research presents a preparation method of dental components by metal injection molding process (MIM process) using titanium scrap. About <TEX>$20{\mu}m$</TEX> sized spherical titanium powders for MIM process were successfully prepared by a novel dehydrogenation and spheroidization method using in-situ radio frequency thermal plasma treatment. The effects of MIM process parameters on the mechanical and biological properties of dental components were investigated and the optimum condition was obtained. After sintering at <TEX>$1250^{\circ}C$</TEX> for 1 hour in vacuum, the hardness and the tensile strength of MIMed titanium components were 289 Hv and 584 MPa, respectively. Prepared titanium dental components were not cytotoxic and they showed a good cell proliferation property.
