Abstract
1) This is one of the permanent fixation methods applied to one piece casting on the anterior teeth of alveolar pyorrhea.
2) The characteristics of this method are:
a) A special apparatus for the preliminary formation, the wax preparation and the casting is not necessary.
b) The technique is very easy.
c) The involved teeth can sufficiently be cleansed by the scaling and the spray after the setting.
d) The stabilization efficiency is very great.
3) This procedure is widely applicable except such cases as loss of many teeth, heavy malocclusion and very unstable teeth.
4) Plans devised from this method are put in practice for the bridge works.
5) Any of gold-, silver-, or copper- alloys can be used as casting metal.
6) Two years have passed since the application of this procedure on about fifteen cases in our clinic, and the progress is favourable. The long- term prognosis is Under observation at present.
