title: [Clinical post-treatment evaluation of powder metallurgically produced tooth replacements].
abstract: 258 units of fixed crowns and inlays, produced with the powder metallurgic Degusint-System (Degussa), were clinically evaluated 6 and 12 months after insertion. Periodontal examinations, especially of the crevicular fluid flow, failed to show higher amounts of marginal inflammation due to the subgingival localization of the margins of fixed sintermetallic restorations compared with reference teeth of the same individual. Plaque accumulations during the wearing period were quite the same as those observed with crowns.
