In order to establish the most suitable technique for the construction of cast titanium denture frames, an experimental model was developed for the quantification of casting success. A relatively large wax pattern (36×29×0.9mm) was prepared from a grid sheet used for the construction of cast cobalt chromium partial denture frames. The pattern consisted of 100 circles and the number of completely cast circles was counted to obtain a percentage success rate. The castings were complete with pure titanium but incomplete (average 54%) with a titanium alloy. For an inspection of internal defects the radiographic conditions were optimised by adopting a relative density of about 2.0. The procedures described will help in establishing the most suitable casting technique for the construction of titanium denture frames for any casting system employed in a laboratory.
