A double casting technique to minimize distortion when constructing fixed partial dentures on implants.
Abstract
The casting of extensive implant superstructures that have a good passive fit may be technically demanding. A simple, 2-stage casting technique is presented that avoids common problems associated with the casting of large superstructures. The fabrication of a 7-unit metal-ceramic screw-retained fixed partial denture supported by 5 implants is used to illustrate this technique.
