Asker: Not used in this way for dental technology procedures ("to enamel" = to build up the prosthesis with an enamel material (= incisal). See "fusible".

Asker: Not in this context; see ccoe.umdnj.edu/catalog/dental/07d0206.htm -

Explanation:
See this recent question http://www.proz.com/kudoz/1474218
The asker wasn't 100% satisfied with the 'bake-on alloy' solution so your own 'bondable' might be preferable.

From my rudimentary knowledge of Spanish it sounds rather like the alloy is being 'baked on'.

Thanks for your note. However, I wasn't asking the question here. I believe that was you.
