The prognosis z Slnniana mental Qtullege 1 1904 mutual if its of each form and the ardent advocates of the one can see no good in the other. Both have their application, and the dentist should no more confine himself to one form of porcelain than he sho-uld to one form of gold or silver. All high fusing porcelains contain silica, kaolin, feld- spar, a flux and the oxides of certain metals. Silica is the oxide of silicon, it is almost infusible and inso-lub-le in all acids except hydrofiuoric. It gives the fused porcelain a translucent appearance and adds strength. Kaolin is the silicate of aluminum and is a very refractory clay. This is added to porcelain to impart stability of fo-rm, and it is this pro-perty which permits it to be molded and carved. Relatively large proportions of kaolin tend to give porce- lain an opaque appearance. Feldspar is a double silicate of aluminum and potassium. On account of its ready fusibility, it serves to agglutinate the more refractory in- gredients, and when diffused throughout the mass imparts a semi-translucent appearance. The flux is composed of some of the following: glass, the carbonates of sodium and potassium, calcined sodium borate, sodium and alumi- num Huorid fcryolitej. One or mo-re of the materials is added to the silica, or feldspar, or both, and are used to render the porcelain more fusible. The basal ingredients of high fusing porcelain may be used in a formula for low fusing, but the fusing point is regulated by the proportion of Hux added to the formula. The flux is incorporated with the basal ingredients and the mass heated until the Hux agglutinates the refractory ma- terials. The process of fusing and grinding is continued until all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed. The action of the flux on the refractory materials increases the fusi- bility and the porosity of the porcelain. It is impossible to always fuse the porcelain so that there is no surplus overlapping the platinum. All margins of the porcelain overhanging thecavity walls are ground away with line stones and cuttle fish disks. If proper care is exercised in constructing the inlay, only a small amount of the glaze on the exposed surface need be destroyed. The glaze should be removed from the seat and walls in order to- obtain a better adhesion with the cement. This is done
