Longevity of a maxillary 2-unit cantilever fixed partial denture: clinical report.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this clinical report, we discuss the length of service and subsequent replacement of a maxillary anterior 2-unit cantilever fixed partial denture (FPD). The FPD provided 53 years of service to the patient and was finally replaced with a 2-unit porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) FPD. The original prosthesis replaced a missing maxillary lateral incisor using a partial coverage metal retainer, whereas the new FPD was designed with a complete coverage PFM retainer.

متن کاملOcclusal force pattern in dentitions with mandibular implant-supported fixed cantilever prostheses occluded with complete dentures.
Naturally occurring axially directed closing and chewing forces were measured in ten patients with mandibular fixture-supported cross-arch prostheses occluding with maxillary complete dentures. The design of the mandibular constructions was characterized by bilateral posterior two-unit cantilevers. The forces were measured using eight miniature strain gauge transducers mounted in the maxillary ...
متن کاملProvisional repair of a zirconia fixed partial denture with fibre-reinforced restorative composite: a clinical report.
Although all-ceramic restorations have become popular, they present some biomechanical problems. Some technical failures can be repaired intraorally to help maintain the longevity of the restoration. This clinical report describes an intraoral method for repairing a fractured 4-unit posterior zirconia-based ceramic fixed partial denture using fibre-reinforced composite material.
متن کاملClinical showcase. Replacement of congenitally missing lateral incisor using a metal-free, resin-bonded fixed partial denture: case report.
Congenital absence of a maxillary lateral incisor occurs in many patients, and the treatment of young adults with this problem is a challenge for both prosthodontists and orthodontists. Common treatment alternatives are distalization of the canine tooth or fabrication of a conventional 3-unit fixed partial denture (FPD), a single-tooth, implantsupported crown restoration or a resinbonded fixed ...
