Popis: | Alloys containing beryllium, silicon, boron, and all nickel base alloys are etched well by the method described, with the exception of Fore alloy manufactured by the Unitek Corp. Alloys containing chrome and cobalt cannot be etched with Met-Etch gel. The advantages of using this method of chemical etching are (1) this conservative procedure can be performed in two clinical sessions, (2) the etching of the framework can be effectively controlled by the dentist or the laboratory technician, and (3) if the metal framework is dislodged it can be cleaned, etched, and reattached during the same appointment. |
