Natural Tooth Pontic using Fiber-reinforced Composite for Immediate Tooth Replacement
نویسنده
چکیده
For patients who require removal of anterior teeth due to periodontal problems there are a multitude of treatment considerations. Using the natural tooth as a pontic offers the benefits of being the right size, shape and color. This paper describes the immediate replacement of an anterior tooth using a preimpregnated fiber-reinforced composite with the natural tooth as the pontic. The abutment teeth can be preserved with minimal or no preparation, thus keeping the technique reversible, and can be completed at the chair side thereby avoiding laboratory costs. It can be used as an interim measure or as a definitive prosthesis.

Immediate Replacement of Periodontally Compromised Teeth Using Natural Tooth Pontic
This article reports a case who was treated with immediate replacement of periodontally compromised mandibular incisors using the extracted incisors as a natural tooth pontic. Following extraction and root resection of the mandibular incisors, radicular pulp was cleaned and filled with composite resin and then bonded to adjacent teeth with fiber reinforced composite resin. This is a simple, eco...

BACKGROUND The rehabilitation of an anterior tooth space presents a confronting situation. Several modalities are presently available to address the challenge of an immediate replacement of a missing anterior tooth. These include a removable temporary acrylic prosthesis or resin-bonded bridges. Fibre-Reinforced Composite (FRC) bridges are preferable if they are fixed and if a cost-effective too...

A fiber-reinforced composite inlay-onlay FPD was used for a single posterior tooth replacement in a patient refusing implant for psychological reasons. The FRC-FPD was made of pre-impregnated E-glass fibers (everStick, StickTeck, Turku, Finland) embedded in a resin matrix (Stick Resin, StickTeck, Turku, Finland). The unidirectional glass fibers were used to make a framework structure with high ...
