Abstract:
The advantages of air vents in the production of extensive cast gold inlays and partial crowns were examined in an in vitro study aimed at reducing the occurrence of open margins in the proximal surfaces. The results of this study with a total of 44 casts showed that a closer marginal fit is achieved by the use of additional air vents.
