MULTIPLE CHOICE
| a. | Direct fabrication of the restoration in the patient’s mouth |
| b. | Superior esthetics when contrasted with all-porcelain jacket crowns |
| c. | The use of high-fusing porcelain for superior bonding to tooth structure |
| d. | The strength and durability produced by the bond between a metal internal core and the porcelain covering |
ANS: D
The main advantage of the combination of porcelain and metal for fixed crown and bridge prosthodontics is the strength and durability given to the restoration by the bond between a metal internal core and the esthetic external porcelain covering. The restorations are strong enough to be used in the posterior part of the mouth, where biting forces are greater than in the anterior, and can be either single crowns or multiple-unit bridges.

| a. | oxide |
| b. | eutectic |
| c. | scintillating |
| d. | oxygen-inhibited |
ANS: A
The metals used as the core for the PFM crowns are alloys of specific metals that will form an oxide layer as the metal is heated. When porcelain is applied to the metal and the two materials are heated together, the porcelain chemically fuses to the oxides on the metal, forming a durable bond.

| a. | 0.01 to 0.03 |
| b. | 0.1 to 0.3 |
| c. | 0.3 to 0.5 |
| d. | 1.0 to 2.0 |
ANS: C
The metal in the area of a PFM crown where the porcelain is to be bonded is approximately 0.3 to 0.5 mm thick. This allows for adequate thickness of the porcelain for color and strength.

TOP: Clinical Applications for Ceramic Materials (Porcelain-Metal Restorations)
| a. | Body porcelain |
| b. | Incisal porcelain |
| c. | Opaque porcelain |
| d. | Translucent porcelain |
ANS: C
The first layer of porcelain applied to the metal is an opaque porcelain that keeps the oxide color from showing through the porcelain and is the main color used for the crown. Base metals often form darker oxides that are more difficult to hide with the opaque porcelain.
