Porous metal coatings for resin-bonding systems.
Two porous coating systems produced surfaces 20 to 30 microns thick, capable of engaging the unfilled component of composite during bonding procedures. A technique is suggested whereby the thickness of porous coating may be compensated by die spacing. The film thickness of the cement tested would be unlikely to affect the fit of any such prosthesis. Prostheses constructed in this manner would have the benefits of microretention without the technical problems of electrolytic etching.
