Casting can be defined as the act of forming an object in a mold. The object thus formed is also called as a casting.

CONT

A casting should be as accurate as possible... the tolerance limits of a dental casting are approximately one-tenth the thickness of a human hair. To obtain castings with such small tolerance limits, rigid requirements must be placed not only on the investment material but also on the impression materials, waxes, and die materials.

OBS

The casting process is used to make dental restorations such as inlays, onlays, crowns, bridges, and removable partial dentures.

L’état de surface d’une pièce prothétique coulée est sous l’influence de différents facteurs.
