A previous clinical evaluation indicated that semiprecious metals had a definite place in the construction of dowels and cores in endodontically treated teeth. 2 The results from the present in vitro study suggest that those alloys do have a place in the fabrication of single castings as type III and IV gold alloy substitutes. Although when compared with a type III gold alloy the behavior of the semiprecious alloys tested was less like that of a noble alloy, the semiprecious alloys appeared less active than the base-metal alloy. This suggests that the semiprecious alloys should be acceptably resistant to corrosion in the oral environment.

Objectives: The retrospective survival study (1995-2004) by Balkenhol et al. [1]. led to changes in the decision-making process for treatment with post and cores (special focus on the covering prosthetic restoration while deciding for treatment with post and cores, high primary friction at the try-in stage for conventional cementation, only indirect fabrication technique, no semi-precious alloy) in our clinic.

Professor, Department of Dentistry, School of Medicine, Inha University, Incheon, Korea. Electronic address:

Statement Of Problem: Few studies have compared the marginal and internal fits of crowns fabricated from machinable palladium-silver-indium (Pd-Ag-In) semiprecious metal alloy.

Purpose: The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate and compare the marginal and internal fits of machined Pd-Ag-In alloy, zirconia, and cast gold crowns.

Material And Methods: A prospective clinical trial was performed on 35 participants and 52 abutment teeth at 2 centers.

This study investigated the effect of adherend temperature on shear bond strengths of auto-polymerizing resin to denture base resin and 4-META/MMA-TBBO resin to silver-palladium-copper-gold (Ag-Pd-Cu-Au) alloy. Bonding procedure was carried out when adherend temperature was 10, 23, 37, or 55°C, and shear bond strengths (SBSs) were measured before and after thermocycling. Before thermocycling, there were no significant differences in bond strength among the four adherend temperatures for each adhesive resin: 31.

The attachments recommended for a unilateral free-end distal extension partial denture assure the comfort for the patient because don't need a cross arch stabilization. One of the most used resilient attachment is represented by FM Hinge (New Anchorvis), an extracoronal, hinge resilient distal extension attachment. It is formed by two elements: a metallic female, designed for adhering into the framework of the denture base and a male, made of fully combustible plastic high fusing for casting to precious and semiprecious alloys.

Mandibular premolar-shaped wax patterns of full crowns with a marginal angle of 300 were prepared. Two semiprecious alloys were cast using a rapidly prepared gypsum-bonded investment material or a conventional gypsum-bonded investment. A precise impression was taken and cut into four segments.
