Abstract
The mechanical properties of pure titanium and titanium alloys were investigated in comparison with commercial dental casting alloys such as gold, nickel-and cobalt-chromium alloys for crown, bridge, plate and porcelain bonding.It was presumed that pure titanium was suitable for crown, bridge and porcelain bonding, 6%Al-4%V-Ti alloy for porcelain bonding and plate, and 13%Cu-Ti alloy for porcelain bonding.
