The Influence of Classical and Modern Manufacturing Technologies on the Properties of Metal Dental Bridges

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper aims to characterize two dental bridges made from Co-Cr alloy, the first one obtained by the conventional method (casting) and the second one by Selective Laser Sintering technique (SLS). The elemental composition, microstructure, hardness and corrosion behavior in artificial saliva were investigated, allowing a parallel analysis of this two samples obtained with the two methods mentioned above.
