The bond strengths with ceramco porcelain were compared between precious alloy S, and non-precious alloys V.U. and R. And the changes in bond strengths of non-precious alloys with ceramco porcelain, according to surface preparations by sand blasting, longitudinal grinding, transverse grinding, and high polishing, were studied. The test specimens were prepared by firing porcelain doughnuts on the surface prepared alloy rods, and investing in dental stone. The specimens were subjected to shear loading forces. The conclusions drawn from the investigation are as follows: 1. The bond strengths with ceramco porcelain were higher in the non-precious alloys U and R, than in the precious alloy S. 2. The bond strengths were in descending order for R alloy, U alloy, V alloy, and S alloy. 3. The bond strengths were highest when the R alloy and U alloy were surface prepared by sand blasting. 4. All bond strength values were lowest when the alloy surfaces were prepared by high polishing.

Although porcelain fused to metal crowns made from non-precious metal have good mechanical properties, they also have disadvantages such as the poor biological acceptability and the low corrosional resistance. Titanium is used as the alternative metal for porcelain fused to metal crowns, in spite of difficulties in casting. For that reason non-precious alloy including titanium which is easy to cast is currently used. This study evaluated the bond strength between non-precious alloy including titanium and Ni-Cr alloy. $Tilite^{(R)}V$ as non-precious alloy including titanium, $Rexilium^{(R)}V$ as Ni-Cr alloy and $Omega900^{(R)}$ and $Vintage(Regular)^{(R)}$ as porcelain powders were used. The results were as follows. 1. In comparison with the kind of alloy, the bond strength of $Tilite^{(R)}V$ was lower than that of $Rexilium^{(R)}V$. There was no significant difference between two groups. 2. In comparison with the kind of porcelain powder, the bond strength of $Omega900^{(R)}$ was higher than that of $Vintage(Regular)^{(R)}$ in $Tilite^{(R)}V$. There was significant difference between two groups(p < 0.05).

Purpose: This study was to assess the extents of the release of metals from the non-precious alloys used for dental casting by measuring the differences in the extents of the release of metals by types of alloys, pH level and elapsed time. Methods: Uniform-sized specimens(10 each) were prepared according to the Medical Device Standard of the Korea Food and Drug Administration(2010) and International Standard Organization(ISO22674, 2006), using four types of alloys(one type of Ni-Cr and one type of Co-Cr used for fixed prosthesis, and one type of Ni-Cr and one type of Co-Cr used for removable prosthesis). A total of 12 metal-release tests were performed at one-day, three-day, and two-week intervals, for up to 20 weeks. The metal ions were quantified using an Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometer. Results: The results showed that the extent of corrosion was higher in the ascending order of Jdium-$100^{(R)}$, Bellabond-$Plus^{(R)}$, Starloy-$C^{(R)}$, and Biosil-$F^{(R)}$. The lower the pH and the longer the elapsed time were, the greater the increase in metal corrosion. At pH 2.4, the release of Ni from Jdium-$100^{(R)}$, a Ni-Cr alloy, was up to 15 times greater than the release of Co from the Co-Cr alloy from two weeks over time, indicating that the Ni-Cr alloy is more susceptible to corrosion than the Co-Cr alloy. Conclusion: It is recommended that Co-Cr alloy, which is highly resistant to corrosion, be used for making dental prosthesis with a non-precious alloy for dental casting, and that non-precious alloy prosthesis be designed in such a way as to minimize the area of its oral exposure. For patients with non-precious alloy prostheses, a test of the presence or absence of periodontal tissue inflammation or allergic reaction around the prosthesis should be performed via regular examination, and education on the good management of the prosthesis is needed.

The surface of metals should be as smooth as possible for optimum comfort, oral hygiene, low plaque retention, and resistance to corrosion. In this study five specimens of each precious metal(type III gold alloy, ceramic gold alloy, and Ag-Pd alloy) were divided into five groups according to finishing and polishing procedures : group 1(sandblaster), group 2(group 1+stone), group 3(group 2+brown rubber), group 4(group 3+green rubber), and group 5(group 4+rouge). Six specimens of each non-precious metal(Co-Cr alloy, Ni-Cr alloy, and Co-Cr-Ti alloy) were divided into six groups: group 1(sandblaster), group 2(group 1+hard stone), group 3(group 2+electrolytic polisher), group 4(group 3+brown hard rubber point), group 5(group 4+green hard rubber point), and group 6(group 5+rouge). Considering factors affecting the rate of abrasion, the same dentist applied each finishing and polishing procedure. In addition, the surface roughness of enamel, resin, and porcelain was evaluated. The effect of finishing and polishing procedures on surface roughness of precious and non-precious metals, enamel, resin, and porcelain was evaluated by means of Atomic Force Microscope(AutoProbe CP. Park Scientific Instruments, U.S.A.) that can image the three dimensional surface profile and measure average surface roughness values of each sample at the same time. The obtained results were as follows : 1. According to finishing and polishing procedures, the surface roughness of type III gold alloy, ceramic gold alloy, and Ag-Pd alloy was decreased in the order of group 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 (P<0.01). 2. According to finishing and polishing procedures. the surface roughness of Co-Cr alloy, Ni-Cr alloy, and Co-Cr-Ti alloy was decreased in the order of group 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 (p<0.01). 3. There was not statistically significant difference in the surface roughness among three metals of precious metals in group 1 but was significant difference in group 2, 3, 4, and 5 (P<0.05). 4. There was not statistically significant difference in the surface roughness among three metals of non-precious metals in all groups. 5. When the surface roughness of the smoothest surface of each metal, enamel. porcelain, and resin was compared, porcelain was the smoothest and the surface roughness was decreased in the order of Ni-Cr alloy. Co-Cr alloy. Co-Cr-Ti alloy, resin. Ag-Pd alloy, ceramic gold alloy type III gold alloy, and enamel (P<0.01). The results of this study indicate that the finishing and polishing procedures should be carried out in a logical, systematic sequence of steps and the harder non-precious metals may be less resistance to abrasion than are the softer precious metals.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the color differences in the In-Ceram according to coping thickness and various abutment core materials ; amalgam, precious alloy, composite resin, non-precious alloy. After the porcelain was built up on the In-Ceram coping at the thicknes of 0.3mm and 0.5mm then it was cemented with glass ionomer cement to the post & core materials. The following results were obtained. 1. There were significant differences in the $L^*$ values $a^*$ and $b^*$ values in the cementation of different cores, to the In-Ceram(P<0.01). $L^*$ values were not significantly different between the composite resin to the In-Ceram and the $a^*\;b^*$ values were not significantly different between the amalgam and the non-precious alloy. 2. All of cementations of In-Ceram to the core materisal had color difference(${\Delta}E^*ab$) compared to the In-Ceram. In the 0.3mm thickness of the In-Ceram copping non-precious alloy indicated the greatest value, while the composite resin core showed the lowest value with a thickness of 0.5mm In-Ceram copping. 3. By controlloing the In-Ceram coping thickness $L^*$ value was significatly different(P<0.01), but not in $a^*$ and $b^*$ values. 4. In an amalgam, precious & non-prcious alloys there was a 1,74 to 3.06 range color difference in the controlled thickness of In-Ceram coping at the thickness of 0.3mm and 0.5mm. The above results suggest that the requirement of the sufficient thickness of In-Ceram coping and the suitable core material in order to get an estheti restoration by In-Ceram and also to intercept the original core color.
