Effect of repeated firings on the color of opaque porcelain applied on different dental alloys
Yilmaz B et al. - Subsequent porcelain firings significantly affected the color of a 0.1-mm-thick layer of opaque porcelain for all alloys tested. After the third and fourth firings, 1 base metal alloy (B-ANP) showed significantly greater color change than the remaining dental alloys when the color difference was compared to baseline. In addition, the color change in a noble alloy (N-CD) was significantly less than that of the other alloys after glaze firing. However, color shifts after repeated dentin firings were imperceptible and clinically acceptable for each type of alloy. [more...]
