Abstract
AbstractThe retention of cast gold crowns luted with zinc phosphate cement to smooth and rough surfaced extracted teeth was examined. No significant difference in retention was observed between smooth and rough surfaced teeth. A significant linear association existed between the surface area of the teeth tested and the retentive force but, statistically, area could not be used as a useful predictor for crown retention.
