Why alloys?
• Enhance:
– Physical properties.
– Chemical properties.
– Biological properties.
• Steel: is an alloy of carbon in iron.
• Stainless steel: steel plus chromium and nickel.

History.
Alloys for metal-ceramic restorations.
• Require melting ranges (MR) that could stand porcelain application.
(870ºC-1370ºC)
• Higher content of Pd MR.
• Ag was avoided
greening porcelain.
Alloys for RPD frameworks.
• Added 0.5-1% C to increase hardness and strength.

Precious or Noble?
• Precious refers to specific group of 8 elements: Au, Ag, Pt, Pd, Rh, Ru, Ir,
Os.
• Noble refers to zero based electrode, elements below hydrogen. Includes
all the precious metals.
Goldfogel and Nielsen. JPD 1982;48:3, 340-343.
Dr. Jose "Paco" Cortes-Botello
11
Precious or Noble?
• Nobility is the free energy of chemical reactions
corrosion.
• Inertness is referred to the tendency of the metals not to form oxides of
sulfides.
• Passivity, “partially nobility” is the inertness provided by a thin oxide or
sulfide tenacious, transparent and completely insoluble layer in the
surface of the metal.
Goldfogel and Nielsen. JPD 1982;48:3, 340-343.

Physical properties.
•
N = kg (m/s²)
•
Pa = N/m² = kg (m/s²) / m²
•
Kg/mm²
– A newton is the amount of force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of
one meter per second squared.
– A pascal is the unit of pressure = one Newton per square metre.
– 1 megapascal (MPa) = 1 000 000 Pa = 1 N/mm²
– Unit of Vickers's Hardness.
Dr. Jose "Paco" Cortes-Botello
14
Yield strength.
• The stress required to permanently deform an alloy a standard amount
(0.2%); to go from elastic to plastic deformation. (MPa)
• Elongation: the amount of permanent deformation an alloy can endure
before tensile fracture. Stiffness or rigidity (%)
Elongation
Yield strength
Wataha, JPD 2002;87:4, 351-363.
Dr. Jose "Paco" Cortes-Botello
15
Elastic modulus.
• Young's modulus, modulus of elasticity or tensile modulus.
• Is a measure of the stiffness of a given material, defined as the limit for
elastic deformation. (MPa)
Elastic Modulus
Dr. Jose "Paco" Cortes-Botello
16
Hardness.
• Resistance to wear. Vickers hardness. (kg/mm²)
• Must be enough to resist occlusal forces but not excessive to wear
opposing teeth.
• Enamel hardness = 340 kg/mm²

between them called grain boundaries.
•
•
•
•
Smaller the grain, higher tensile strength.
Grain size does not affect hardness.

Malleability.
• The property of a metal to be deformed by compression loads
without cracking or rupturing. Material will be suitable for
forging or rolling into thin sheet.

Chemical Properties.
Dr. Jose "Paco" Cortes-Botello
22
Corrosion.
• Deterioration of the properties in a material due to reactions with its
environment. (release elements).
• Compromise physical properties. (strength and esthetics)
• Biological irritation. (Biocompatibility)
• Multiple phase alloys and non-noble elements risk.
• Noble elements: Au, Pt, Pd, Ir, Rh, Os, Ru.
Wataha, JPD 2002;87:4, 351-363.
Dr. Jose "Paco" Cortes-Botello
23
Oxidation.
• High Au alloys have thinner, light color oxide.
• Ag, Ni, Co alloys have thicker, darker oxide.
• Thicker opaque layer, lower value in porcelain.
• Thicker oxide
Higher risk MC bonding failure.
• Stress from occlusal loads
oxide layer.
• Recasting Au alloys, the oxide-forming elements are depleted from 1st
casting and produce inadequate oxide layer.
Wataha, JPD 2002;87:4, 351-363.
Dr. Jose "Paco" Cortes-Botello
24
Coefficient of thermal expansion. (CTE)
• The ratio of change in length, area, or volume per degree to the
corresponding value at a standard temperature.
• P contracts , tensile stress.
• P contracts , compressive stress.
• P CTE < A CTE 0.5 x 10ˉ / ºC.6
• If P CTE <<<< A CTE, MC bonding will fail as a result of compressive stress.
Wataha, JPD 2002;87:4, 351-363.
Dr. Jose "Paco" Cortes-Botello
25
Melting range.
• The range of temperature (T) between:
• Solidus T: lower T at which melting begins.
• Liquidus T: higher T at which entire alloy is melted.
• Porcelain must sinters 50 ºC < alloy’s solidus T.
• Solder must have liquidus T 50ºC < alloy’s solidus T.

Results.
• The open circuit potential (OCP) and polarization resistance (PR) were
designated as the corrosion resistance.
• The great similarity in corrosion behavior for the high Pd and Au-Pd alloys
was attributed to their predominant Pd content.

Conclusions.
• In vitro, corrosion resistance of the 3 high Pd alloys in simulated body fluid
and oral environments were comparable to Au-Pd alloy.
• There were no significant differences among the 4 Heat Treated alloys
tested in oral environments.
• 3 High Pd alloys showed passivity through a surface oxide film formation in

Effect of recasting on the cytotoxicity.
• Recasting common practice in many laboratories to reduce costs.
• Ni-Cr and Co-Cr alloys have been used as a substitute for noble and high
noble alloys.

Conclusions.
• Castings from type III gold alloy showed the best marginal accuracy. There
was no significant difference with Au 50% gold alloy castings.
• Castings from Ni-Cr alloys were tight on dies and presented the highest
marginal discrepancies. Margins were usually incomplete.
• Savings on lower cost alloy will be offset by the extra labor in grinding and
adjusting alloys.

Conclusions.
• Significant differences in marginal fit between the control alloy and the 5

Conclusions.
• After Porcelain Firing Cycle, differences in hardness were statistically
significant (4%-8%) for Pd-Ga alloys. This differences have no clinical
significance.
• However a 13% decrease in the hardness of the Pd-Ag alloy (Super Star)
might be of clinical importance.
• Considerable homogenization of the as cast microstructure of the 4 alloys
occurred with heat treatment.

Materials and methods.
• 12 measures per implant: B, L, D, M.
• Passive fit, 1 screw tightened.
– Tightened side.
– Opposite side.
• Both screws were tightened to 10 N.
• Electroerosion, Electric Discharge TMT.

Conclusions.
• Electroerosion procedure significantly reduced marginal gap for both
alloys in all conditions.
• Comparison between both alloys after electroerosion did not show
significantly differences for the opposite side.
• Au alloy showed the shortest marginal gaps in all conditions.

Conclusions.
Criteria for alloy selection.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Know and understand alloy composition (allergies).
Single phase.
Avoid selection based on color.
Keep track of the alloys used, name and manufacturer.
Long-term clinical performance, and long term costs of restorations
over short term costs.
Clinical situations: esthetics, occlusion, space, curvature, length.
Dr. Jose "Paco" Cortes-Botello

Conclusions.
Use reliable, clinically proven products.



Companies research and manufacture alloys.
Tested alloys for element release and corrosion.
Dental laboratory.

As Prosthodontists, we are responsible for the safety and success or
failure of our restorations.
