Abstract

The introduction of pre-impregnated fiber-reinforced resin composites (Everstick, Fa. Stick Tech, Turku, Finnland) has provided the dental profession with the opportunity to fabricate and deliver adhesive, esthetic and metal-free tooth replacements.Utilizing this chairside technology, a fiber-reinforced resin composite fixed partial denture that allows rapid, cost-effective, and minimally invasive fixed tooth replacement for single anterior teeth has been developed. Ideal indications for this type of restoration include: A fixed replacement following tooth loss from trauma; periodontally compromised abutments; a fixed space maintainer following orthodontic movement; and a fixed provisional during the post implant healing phase prior to loading. This article describes the framework construction and placement protocol for the chairside fabricated fiber-reinforced resin composite fixed partial denture.
