Author:	Dr Duncan Wood, School of Clinical Dentistry, The University of Sheffield; Dr Christopher Stokes, School of Clinical Dentistry, The University of Sheffield
Description:	This video shows the second stage of the production of a cast gold crown for a damaged tooth. The wax template of the tooth is sprued using wax wire, then invested in a refractory investment material. The video shows the mould being heated to both expand it and prevent against thermal shock. A centrifugal casting process is shown, using an electrical furnace for melting the gold. From set of videos used in Advanced Restorative Course in School of Clinical Dentistry, The University of Sheffield.
