This study determined the effect of castable ceramic, with and without shading porcelain applied, on enamel wear. The wear produced by conventional dental porcelain was used as a control. Cusp tips from extracted human third molars were precision-machined into cones of enamel approximately 1 mm long. Three groups of nine cones each were abraded against rotating disks of (1) castable ceramic with shading porcelain, (2) castable ceramic without shading porcelain, and (3) conventional dental porcelain. Enamel wear was calculated from microscopic measurements of the enamel cones before and after abrading. Mean and standard deviation values were 1.220 +/- 0.218 for castable ceramic with shading porcelain, 0.639 +/- 0.218 for castable ceramic without shading porcelain, and 0.785 +/- 0.311 for glazed conventional dental porcelain (all values are X 10(-3) cm3). Significant differences were found between castable ceramic with and without shading porcelain and between conventional dental porcelain and castable ceramic with shading porcelain (p less than 0.001 ANOVA and 0.05 Scheffe's test). These findings suggest that castable ceramic with shading porcelain should not be used in regions that will function against opposing natural teeth.
