ABSTRACT

Aim of the study The primary objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive assessment of noble metal cements in dental medicine. By synthesizing relevant scientific literature, we aim to offer a thorough understanding of the characteristics, applications, advantages, and disadvantages of noble metal cements in contemporary dental practice. Through an evidence-based approach, our study seeks to inform dental professionals and researchers about the role and considerations surrounding the use of noble metal cements in restorative and prosthetic dentistry. Material and methods In pursuit of our study’s objectives, we conducted an extensive exploration of the pertinent scientific literature. To gather relevant information and data, systematic searches were meticulously executed in electronic databases known for their dental and medical coverage. These databases included PubMed, Google Scholar, and Web of Science. Our search criteria were designed to retrieve articles published from May and onwards, ensuring that our review encompasses the most contemporary research and developments in the field of noble metal cements in dental medicine. Results The results of this comprehensive review are presented in a structured and organized manner, shedding light on various aspects of noble metal cements in dental medicine. We synthesize the current scientific knowledge regarding the properties, applications, and advantages of noble metal cements while also addressing potential disadvantages and limitations. Through our analysis, we aim to provide a holistic perspective on the use of noble metal cements in various dental scenarios. Conclusions Drawing from the gathered data and insights, our review offers conclusions that underscore the significance of noble metal cements in dental medicine. We discuss their biocompatibility, durability, malleability, and versatility, while also acknowledging considerations related to cost, esthetics, and environmental impact. By addressing these aspects, our study provides valuable guidance for dental professionals, educators, and researchers, supporting evidence-based decision-making in the use of noble metal cements for dental restorations and prosthetic applications.
