Abstract
The marginal accuracy of complete cast crowns made from five alternative casting alloys was measured and compared with that of crowns made from the traditional type III high-gold alloy. The alternative alloys studied were low-gold-palladium, high palladium, silver-palladium, nickel-chrome-molybdenum, and copper-aluminum. The findings indicated that Ag-Pd alloy crowns exhibited the best marginal accuracy among the alternative alloys tested. However, their marginal discrepancy value was still slightly higher than that of crowns made of type III high-gold alloy. Conversely, Ni-Cr-Mo alloy crowns exhibited the poorest marginal accuracy.Entities:
