Abstract
The metal-ceramic restoration is a well established solution for how to overcome the problem of the lack in strength and toughness of the highly aesthetic feldspathic dental ceramics. As shown in the previous chapter the primary consideration for the veneering ceramic is that it has a coefficient of thermal expansion that is appropriately matched to the coefficient of thermal expansion of the metal by the incorporation of leucite, that it bonds well to the metal substructure and provides aesthetic veneers able to mask the color of the underlying metal.
