 The work presents the results of the studies of Co-Cr-Mo casting alloys 
 used in the production of frame casts of removable dentures,
 </p>
 <p>
 crowns and bridges in dental prosthetics. The studies were performed on 
 four Co-Cr-Mo alloys of different contents of Mo, W and other
 </p>
 <p>
 additives. Electrochemical tests were performed, which aimed at 
 examining the corrosion resistance of the alloys and observing the alloy
 </p>
 <p>
 structure after chronoamperometric tests with the potential in the area 
 of the occurrence of the passive layer breakpoint. The alloy
 </p>
 <p>
 microstructure images after chronoamperometric tests show the presence 
 of non-uniformly distributed general corrosion. Moreover, a
 </p>
 <p>
 project of cobalt alloy casting was elaborated using a ceramic mold 
 casting. Additionally, analysis of the obtained microstructure was
 </p>
 <p>
 performed. The microstructure of the examined alloys was of the dendrite 
 type. This microstructure was chemically inhomogeneous and
 </p>
 <p>
 consisted of an austenitic matrix formed by a solid cobalt solution and 
 chromium in the core dendritic structure.
