Academy Gold

Au (77.2%)-based dental casting alloy, Type 2

Academy Gold

Academy Gold is a high-precious, palladium-free casting alloy with an intensive golden yellow colour. The fine metal structure gives this alloy a high degree of tensile strength, which makes it ideal for inlays and onlays.

Indications*

  • Inlays
  • Onlays, 3/4 crowns, crowns
