This study found that 97% of titanium partial denture frameworks were technically acceptable for clinical use. This demonstrates that titanium castability is suitable for daily dental casting applications.

Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Science
  • Dental Prosthodontics

Background:

  • Titanium is a highly biocompatible metal for dental restorations.
  • Concerns exist regarding the daily castability of titanium for dental applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To radiographically evaluate titanium partial denture frameworks.
  • To determine the technical acceptability of titanium castings for clinical use.

Main Methods:

  • 300 Grade II titanium removable partial denture frameworks were cast.
  • Castings were made using a Titec 205M casting machine by a specialist.
  • Radiographic evaluation assessed argon inclusions to rate technical acceptability.

Main Results:

  • 97% of the 300 titanium frameworks were technically acceptable for clinical use.

  • Acceptability was based on castability, with minor modifications or remakes for some.

    • Conclusions:

    • Titanium exhibits suitable castability for producing technically acceptable dental frameworks on a daily basis.
    • Radiographic evaluation confirmed the clinical viability of titanium castings.
