Aim:- To assess the knowledge, attitude and practise regarding the use of noble metal alloys in fixed partial denture among the dental students. Objective:- To determine the awareness and practise about the use of noble metal alloys in fixed partial denture among the dental students. Materials and methods:- A closed- ended questionnaire comprising 10 questions were given 100 dental students and their responses were analysed and tabulated. Results:- Majority of the dental students are aware about the use of noble metal alloys in the fabrication of a fixed partial denture. About 70% of the students consider that precious metal is favourable for the fabrication of a fixed prosthesis. A vast number of students preferred the use of noble metal alloys during the fabrication of a fixed prosthesis so as to have an accurate fit on the mouth. 85% of that subjects imply that noble metal alloys improves the workability, burnish ability and density. In the study, more than half the subjects (63%) feel that the noble metal alloys bond better with porcelain. Conclusion:- The dental students are aware of the use of noble metal alloys and its various superior properties in the fabrication of a fixed partial denture. Therefore various awareness lectures or programmes should be conducted among the dental students so as to further increase their knowledge about the noble metal alloys.
