qual·i·ty
the standard of something as measured against other things of a similar kind; the degree of excellence of something.
Aesthetics is just one measurement of quality.
This case will be delivered as a palateless restoration retained by 6 locators opposing a dentate arch. In evaluating and meeting expectations in the long-term, we explored reinforcement options.

After discussing my successful experiences in the past using silanated E-glass fiber over alloy reinforcement it was decided to abandon using alloy. I cited its chemical bonding to PMMA, the increase in tensile strength, and lowering of elastic modulus, promoting resistance to failure due to fatigue.

The message of this post, is when selecting quality, take into account the depth of knowledge used to fabricate a restoration, how your laboratory addresses the longevity and not just how pretty it looks.
