When removable partial dentures are fabricated, a custom-made tooth may be needed to fill a space too small or irregularly shaped to allow the use of a prefabricated prosthetic tooth. This article describes a simple technique in which visible light-polymerized composite is used to custom build a prosthetic tooth that is both esthetic and durable.
Some physical properties of nonprecious alloys were compared after repeated casting without the addition of any new alloy. The tensile strength, percentage of elongation, and hardness properties were determined and compared. There were no significant differences observed in the physical properties tested among any of the four generations of casting. This finding indicates that the metal can be reused for at least four generations.
