Gold inlays bonded with a resin cement: a clinical report.

Because the marginal gap of finished gold inlays luted with Panavia 21 luting agent and zinc phosphate are comparable and the low viscosity and minimal film thickness of Panavia 21 cement allows the clinician to easily seat restorations without compromising fit and marginal integrity, the favorable physical properties of low solubility, high retention, and improved marginal seal would appear to enhance the longevity of gold inlays seated with Panavia 21 cement.
