title: [Dentacolor veneer for crowns and bridges with the Silicoater process--a clinical trial].
abstract: Out of 157 patients treated by prosthodontic students with fixed crowns and bridges veneered with Dentacolor according to the Silicoater process 66 presented for the follow-up examination. A total of 284 veneer units were assessed consisting of 104 crowns and 51 pontics and cantilevers in the maxilla and 80 crowns and 49 pontics and cantilevers in the mandible. They had been in the mouth for an average of 17 months. The parameters evaluated were: colour fastness, abrasion, marginal gap formation, swelling, surface quality, and plaque formation for oral hygiene. Almost all veneers were rated "good" to "satisfactory"; therefore light-cured plastic veneers of crowns and bridges with the Silicoater process maybe recommended as a low-price alternative envolving little laboratory work versus the traditional pressure casting or shell methods.
