Metal-Ceramic Compatibility in Dental Restorations According to the Metallic Component Manufacturing Procedure.

In terms of production technology, metal-ceramic systems for dental restorations comply with a concrete algorithm, the efficiency of which is always dependent on the applications for which they are intended. The first stage involves obtaining metal support, followed by firing the ceramic on the surface of the metal to meet the list of functional and aesthetic requirements of a future restoration. The compatibility of the two materials-the metal component and the ceramic component-must be ensured in several respects: chemical compatibility, thermo-chemical compatibility, and mechanical compatibility.
