To reach a good link between the metallic framework and the ceramic element of a bridge represents one of the most important aim of the clinical and technical steps of the dental treatment for partial edentulous patients. The purpose of this study was represented by the analysis of the electrodeposition method in enhancing of the metalo-ceramic link. We used an electrogalvanic bath inside which we introduced a metallic framework which has been improved by electrodeposition of a thin layer of gold. The results showed a stronger and more stable link between the metallic framework and the ceramic element.
