Abstract
It is now possible to provide combination fixed/removable prosthetic restorations using only 1 dental alloy, such as CoCr, a nonprecious alloy. This alloy offers clinical performance and demonstrated corrosion resistance. This clinical report demonstrates use of a single CoCr alloy for metal-ceramic fixed partial dentures in conjunction with a mandibular removable partial denture.
