The cementation of porcelain jacket crowns with adhesive resins
W P Crocker
Abstract
A method of cementing porcelain jacket crowns by etching the fitting surface and bonding the restoration directly to dentine was evaluated. The crowns constructed in this way had a more natural translucency and their strength, as tested by slow impact, was at least as good as aluminous cored crowns. The mode of fracture was less catastrophic than with crowns cemented with phosphate cements
