Technique for minimizing dimensional changes in large-span ceramic-metal fixed restorations.
In the technique described in this article, the long-span and full-arch fixed restoration can be soldered by isolating the restoration from the heatrobbing mass of investment and perching it on stilts of high-temperature-resistant rods. The porcelain is fired and glazed with a minimum dimensional change.
