Elastic modulus of metal-ceramic systems determines their flexural strenght and prevents damages on ceramics during mastication. Recycling of basic alloys is often a clinical practice, despite the possible effects on the quality of the future metal-ceramic dentures. This research was done to establish recasting effects of nickel-chromium and cobalt-chromium alloys on the elastic modulus of metal-ceramic systems in making fixed partial dentures.
