Abstract

Fixed partial dentures (FPDs) made of metal ceramic are a popular treatment option for missing teeth. Studies have shown that posterior abutments of FPDs had a higher pulp survival rate than anterior abutments. Postoperative sensitivity following the cementation of a fixed prosthesis is a frequent symptom, especially when the abutments include important pulp. Dentinal hypersensitivity affects between 4 and 74 percent of people. Females are found to have a somewhat greater DH incidence than males. While DH can affect individuals of any age, there have been several theories on what causes abutment sensitivity after tooth preparation and cementation. In this review we included some of it. Also, we discussed methods of management of postoperative sensitivity and Management of fractured abutment screw.
