    Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the use of copper alloy for dental application. Materials and methods: Three types of copper alloy used in Thailand were selected (Cu-Al, Cu-Al-Ni and Cu-Zn). Ingots of these three alloys...-Zn alloys were not significantly different (48.6, 52.1, and 53.3 percent, respectively). The proof stress of Cu-Al and Cu-Al-Ni alloys (88.5 and 72.1 MPa, respectively) were not significantly different, while that of Cu-Zn alloy (38.9 MPa
