Abstract

This study obtained the following consequences, as a result of the comparative analysis for the castability depending on an angle of the sprue and wax pattern in case of manufacturing dental prostheses, for the castability depending on direction, and for the castablility of sprue, which attached the reserve to each different 3.5mm roll wax(sprue wax) and to 2.5mm sprue wax. 1. As a result of the comparative analysis for the castability depending on an angle of the sprue and wax pattern, the best castability was shown when the angle of the sprue and wax pattern is 180$^{\circ}\Delta$(straight line), and the lowest castability was shown in 45$^{\circ}\Delta$, which was curved most, and there was no statistical significance. 2. As a result of the comparative analysis for the castability of an angle depending on direction, the best castability was shown in the farthest side from the direction of centrifugal casting, and the lowest castability was shown in the same side as the direction of centrifugal casting, and there was no statistical significance. 3. Given comparing the castability depending on the pattern of sprue, the better castability was shown in 135$^{\circ}\Delta$ and 180$^{\circ}\Delta$ when using 3.5mm roll wax(sprue wax), compared to attaching the reserve to 2.5mm sprue wax.
