SUMMARY Electrodeposition is the galvanic deposition of the gold alloy with 99% of purity (24K) for the dentistry use, having like principle electrolysis. This electrodeposition system allows the preparation of pure gold coping with an excellent marginal fit. It can be made with a minimum thickness of 0,2mm doing possible to make a less teeth reduction, and on that fine infrastructure can be applied to a greater layer of ceramics optimizing the aesthetic when it is compared with the cast conventional copings. It is possible the preparation of unitary and fixed partial prostheses. The metal-ceramics crowns made by the electrodeposition technique present an aesthetic satisfactory, due to a natural appearance and better quality of the color. Additionally, it presents advantageous characteristics as corrosion absence and an excellent biocompatibility with periodontal tissues. This work shows the preparation of complete metal-ceramics crowns made with copings by electrodeposition, having as objective present an alternative in fixed partial prosthetics for the professionals
