title: Repair technique for porcelain-fused-to-metal restorations.
abstract: A technique has been described which can be used to repair many fractured porcelain-fused-to-metal restorations. The primary advantage of this technique is that it can salvage many restorations which might otherwise require remaking to achieve a satisfactory esthetic result. The disadvantage of the technique is its lack of universal application. There are situations which, due to the nature of the fracture or the framework, are not suitable for this repair technique.
