Marginal adaptation of four inlay casting waxes on stone, titanium, and zirconia dies.

Statement Of Problem: Different inlay casting waxes do not produce copings with satisfactory marginal accuracy when used on different die materials.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the marginal accuracy of 4 inlay casting waxes on stone dies and titanium and zirconia abutments and to correlate the findings with the degree of wetting between the die specimens and the inlay casting waxes.

Material And Methods: The inlay casting waxes tested were Starwax (Dentaurum), Unterziehwachs (Bredent), SU Esthetic wax (Schuler), and Sculpturing wax (Renfert).
