Restoration of a partially edentulous posterior using a new generation PFM restorative

This article presents a recently developed porcelain-fused-to-metal dental material, which combines strength and durability with aesthetics and can be used in the anterior as well as posterior regions. Developed in Europe, this system is now available in the United States and can be used in conjunction with all conventional restorations. In the case presented, this material was used with a gold-casted premachined plastic screw-type attachment, and a case report is used to illustrate the clinical procedure.
