The cast glass-ceramic restoration.
The use of Dicor cast glass-ceramic material for fixed prosthodontic complete crowns has been described. The advantages of this material are chemical and physical uniformity, marginal accuracy, uncomplicated fabrication from wax-up to casting, ceramming, and coloring, ease of adjustment, excellent esthetics resulting from natural translucency, light absorption, light refraction, and natural color for the crown, and its inherent resistance to bacterial plaque.
