title: [Finishing of cast titanium for crowns and bridges].
abstract: The surface roughness of cast Titanium compared with a precious alloy (Au-Ag-Cu), two Pd-base alloys (Pd-Ag-Sn-In, Pd-Sn-Ga-Cu) and two base metal alloys (Ni-Cr-Mo, Co-Cr-Mo) was determined by surface profile measurements after polishing with six different polishing pastes. The results revealed the best surface quality for Au-Ag-Cu followed by Ni-Cr-Mo, Co-Cr-MO, Pd-Sn-Ga-Cu and Pd-Ag-Sn-In. The highest but still acceptable surface roughness was found with Ti.
