Purpose
•
The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluatethe ion release of chromium, cobalt, and ironfrom the Co-Cr alloys used for traditionally castand computer-aided design/computer-aidedmanufacturing dental devices after interaction
with oral bacteria and different pH conditions.

MATERIAL AND METHODS
•Three different types of dental metal alloys were selec(all nominal compositions were provided by themanufacturer Ivoclar Vivadent):
1.CASTING ALLOY
2.MILLING ALLOY
3.LASER-SINTERING ALLOY
All alloys were free of nickel, beryllium, and cadmium
according to DIN EN ISO standard 22674:2011.41

•Each dental alloy was shaped into 10 disks, each15 mm in diameter and 1mm thick.
• All specimens were polished with silicon carbidepaper with a grinder polisher machine.
•The specimens were than cleaned in ethanol and
deionized water in an ultrasonic cleaner for 5minutes to remove contaminants and finallyautoclave-sterilized.

•Each metal ceramic alloy was immersed in thesolutions in polypropylene test tubes and
incubated at 37 C to simulate the oraltemperature.
•The solutions were analyzed after 15 and 30 daysin the chemical corrosion test and 30 days in thebiocorrosion test to detect ions released in
different solutions.
•The biocorrosion test was conducted in acontrolled atmosphere with 5% CO2concentration.

DISCUSSION
•
The oral microflora plays a relevant role becausethe presence of specific bacteria, pathogens, orhealthy commensal organisms can triggerbiocorrosion mechanisms on dental alloys.

•Porcelain firing process phases may alter themetallurgical state, surface oxides, and corrosionproperties of the alloy depending on its chemicalcomposition.
• Autoclaving, in contrast, has no effect on thesurface characteristics or chemical property of analloy because of the low temperature reached (120
C-160 C) in steam sterilization compared with themelting temperature of base dental alloys (1000C-1400 C).

•Can et al emphasized that the release of metalions from dental cast alloys has correlated withthe surrounding environmental conditions and
the surface of dental alloy.

• Al Jabari et al found gross porosity only in dental allfabricated by means of conventional casting (LW).
•The interdendritic porosity due to shrinkage during alloy solidification weakens the structure of the pros
•Grains of microstructure are not well defined and conof few large crystals with each crystal forming a simpdendrite.
• No porosity was detected in milling (M) or laser sint(LS) alloys.

•E. corrodens can play a role in specificaggregation with certain gram-positive andgram-negative bacteria present in humanperiodontal pockets but probably cannot producea stable biofilm without interaction with othermicroflora components.

CONCLUSION
• Co-Cr alloys processed with different fabrication techniqu(casting, milling, and laser sintering) show a release of lowamounts of ions in all tested conditions.
• No difference was noted when the specimens were exposedenriched bacteria environment.
• It was concluded that all the alloys are adequately corrosiresistant and well suited for dental usage, although the LWalloy shows the greatest risk of corrosion under acidicconditions.
