Abstract

The finite element was used to temperature changes with time to Au-AgPd alloy and porcelain crowns in three dimensional models of average maxillary second premolar. Temperature changes some critical nodes were calculated as a result of hot/cold liquid. Calculation programs were prepared by authors using FORTRAN 77. The tooth was assumed isotropic, homogenous, elastic and unsymmetric.
