The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of core materials and luting agents on the retention of full veneer gold crown. The core materials used in this study was dental amalgam, and composite resin, and the luting agents were zinc phosphate cement, polycarboxylate cement, and glass ionomer cement. The obtained results were as follows. 1. In full veneer gold crown supported by composite resin core, the crown retention with zinc phosphate cement was the highest of all. 2. In full veneer gold crown supported by amalgam core, the crown retention was shown no statistical difference by luting agent. 3. There was no statistical difference in the crown retention between the full veneer gold crown supported by composite resin core and dental amalgam core.
