Unlabelled: Determination of condylar inclination is important when restoring the occlusal surfaces of teeth. It is important to know the changing trends in horizontal condylar inclination with age so as to have an idea about the cuspal morphology.

Aims And Objectives: a) to determine the effect of age changes in horizontal condylar inclination using articulator method and radiographic method (cephalometry) b) to compare the values of horizontal condylar inclination obtained using articulator method with that of cephalometric method c) to ascertain the symmetry of horizontal condylar angle on both right and left side on an articulator.

Background: The final esthetic outcome of a metal-ceramic restoration is influenced by several factors including the type of the underlying metal as well as the brand of the ceramic.

Settings And Design: An in vitro study.

Aims: The purpose of the in vitro study was to investigate the influence of four types of metal-ceramic alloys and two porcelain systems on the color co-ordinates of the metal-ceramic complex.
