ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the influence of cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) casting alloys' melting temperatures on the cast-to Co-Cr implant cylinders' marginal fit. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Co-Cr alloys with different melting ranges were cast into 20 Co-Cr cylinders 10 in a high-melting temperature (HMT) group and 10 in a low-melting temperature (LMT) group. Ten cylinders were used as received as a control group. Cylinders' marginal misfit and dimensional stability were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy (×500). RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION:
HMT cylinders showed significant differences in marginal misfit (2.48 ± 1.07 µm2) compared to LMT (1.53 ± 0.37 µm2) and control (1.27 ± 0.57 µm2) cylinders, but there were no differences in dimensional stability. HMT Co-Cr alloys produce implant-supported prostheses with poor marginal fit.
