Intraoral jewellery has nowadays gained popularity and is slowly becoming a trend, but this fashion tagline is also associated with some serious health risks. The different jewellery in use today are lip studs, lip rings, tooth rings, grill jewellery, dazzlers and twinkles, veneer jewellery cheek studs, etc. There is an age-old history for dental jewellery as it was considered as a symbol of religion, tribe, culture, and sex. These accessories though are said to enhance beauty cause problems such as increase in plaque levels, inflammation of the gingiva and/or recession, decay, defective occlusion, and metal allergy. There are also some life-threatening complications such as airway obstruction due to aspiration, bleeding, erythema, and endocarditis. If there is a usage of unsterile instruments, it can act as a vector in the transmission of communicable diseases such as hepatitis, tetanus, and tuberculosis in susceptible patients.

  • Investment Casting Or the Lost Wax Process
    Investment Casting or The Lost Wax Process Apecs Investment Castings was founded in 1963 and is now situated in the Melbourne suburb of Burwood where we have been since we outgrew our Canterbury factory in August 1987. The company name (APECS), stands for Anthony Philip Eccles Casting Service. Investment is a type of plaster that we use in our process of reproducing multiple copies of an original master pattern which is usually supplied to us by our customers. This is a classic 18ct yellow gold emerald and diamond ring taken from the Apecs catalogue. The next series of photos will show the steps involved in producing multiple copies of this ring. An original master pattern is designed and fabricated by our customers and supplied to us to reproduce in the quantities and metals of their choice. It is important to ensure that the master is made as accurately as possible and to pay particular attention to the finish of the master pattern. The better the quality of the master pattern the better the casting result. The finished master pattern ready for the caster. A picture of the master pattern is drawn and a mould number is allocated for identification. When the customer wants to reorder he quotes the mould number for the pattern he wants. A sprue is soldered onto the pattern. This sprue enables the pattern to be easily located in the mould and will provide the path for the wax to be injected into the rubber mould. To make a mould the master pattern is placed between sheets of uncured vulcanising rubber.

  • Carat Weight It's the Old Quandary. Is Bigger Better? Size Is Sought After, Naturally; but Overall Quality Counts in the Stretch
    Carat Weight It's the old quandary. Is bigger better? Size is sought after, naturally; but overall quality counts in the stretch. This balance of size and quality makes up much of the art of a professional gem cutter. It is the cutter's job to produce a gorgeous diamond while giving the consumer the highest CARATAGE for his or her money. Caratage means CARAT, the measurement used to weigh a diamond. The word carat is taken from the perfectly matched carob seeds that people once used in ancient times to balance scales. So uniform in shape and weight are these little seeds that even today's sophisticated instruments cannot detect more than three one-thousandths of a difference between them. Don't confuse it with KARAT, the method of determining the purity of gold. What's The Point? One Carat= 200 milligrams, or 0.2 grams. 142 carats adds up to one ounce. Carats are further divided into points. Carat Weight point system What does all this mean, and how does it work? The price of a diamond will always rise proportionately to the size of the stone. Larger diamond crystals are more rare and have a greater value per carat. So, a one carat diamond of a given color and clarity will be much more valuable than 2 one half carat diamonds of equal quality. Cut As the single human contribution to a polished diamond's beauty, cut is perhaps the most important, yet most over-looked, of the Four Cs of diamond quality. How does cut affect a diamond's value and beauty? A good cut gives a diamond its brilliance, its dispersion, its scintillation-in short, its life.

  • The Metallurgy of Some Carat Gold Jewellery Alloys
    The Metallurgy of Some Carat Gold Jewellery Alloys PART I — COLOURED GOLD ALLOYS Allen S. McDonald and George H. Sistare Handy & Harman, Fairfield, Connecticut, U.S.A. The classification of gold alloys in terms of caratage and colour provides no guidance as to the properties and working characteristics of the many carat gold alloys used in jewellery fabrication. Logical relationships do exist, however, between the composition, metallurgical structure and properties of such alloys, and these emerge from a study of the phase diagrams of the alloy systems involved. Part I of this review deals with coloured gold alloys. Part II will discuss their nickel containing counter- parts and will appear in the next issue of Gold Bulletin. Most carat gold for jewellery falls into one or other Three quasi-binary vertical sections of the ternary of two major categories, the coloured gold alloys diagram at constant gold contents characteristic of based on the gold-silver-copper or the gold-silver- jewellery alloys (10, 14 and 18 carat) are schematical- copper-zinc system and the white gold alloys. ly represented in Figure 4 where the parameter used Although many coloured gold alloys contain zinc on the abscissa is defined as: (from less than 1 to about 15 weight per cent), it is Ag wt.% valid to introduce this group in terms of the gold- Ag' = x 100 (per cent) silver-copper ternary system, from which all of the Ag wt.°Io + Cu wt.% alloys inherit certain fundamental metallurgical characteristics.

This conclusion was based on observations of: patterns of zoned color, U.V. luminescence, and graining; metallic inclu- sions; and certain bands in the visible- and infrared-range absorption spec- tra.

For some of the gemological features desen3ed here, such as visible-grangespectra with sharp absorption bands, this is one of the first reported occurrences in gemquality synthetic diamonds.
