Abstract
INTRODUCTION:A Cast Partial Denture is a removable partial denture that mainly consists of a cast metal framework and artificial teeth set in an acrylic resin. Cast Partial dentures are usually strong, durable and retentive. The major disadvantage of cast partial denture is time-consuming and a complex procedure as compared to the normal acrylic dentures. Dental alloys are custom made for individuals used for restoration of a missing tooth. The alloys that are primarily used in cast partial dentures are nickel, chromium and cobalt, which is further divided into the nickel-containing and nickel-free alloys. Alloys are basically used as filling materials as amalgam in cases such as all-metal fixed partial denture and removable partial denture framework casting
