Clinical and laboratory study of corrosion resistance of a base dental alloy for selective laser melting.

CAD/CAM technologies are becoming widely used for the production of metal ceramic dental restorations. Powder Co-based alloys are developed for selective laser melting. The corrosion resistance of the dental alloy affects the biocompatibility, functional suitability, and longevity of the prosthetic restoration.

Allergic Contact Dermatitis due to Methacrylates in a Dental Technician - a Clinical Case.
