Comparative Evaluation of Esthetic Materials Used For Fixed Partial Prosthesis on the Periodontal Status – A One Year Retrospective Follow-UP

Abstract

Objective:Sound periodontal foundation is essential for successful restorative therapy and also for long-term success of prosthodontic restorations. A number of novel esthetic materials have become popular in fixed prosthodontics today. Endodontically treated teeth are commonly required to serve as abutments for crowns, fixed or removable partial dentures. Many clinicians are of the opinion that endodontically treated teeth do not serve as well as vital teeth. The present study aimed to assess the long term effect and tissue responses of various types of fixed partial prosthesis using endodontically treated as abutments on the periodontal parameters both clinically and radiographically.Methodology: Following ethical committee approval, the study group comprised of 52 abutment teeth in 26 systemically healthy patients (14 males and 12 females) aged between 18 – 45 years who had received 3 unit fixed prosthesis(IPS empress, PFM or zirconia), having equigingival margins using endodontic teeth as abutments with post and core. The following parameters were assessed at baseline, phase 1, 3 and 4 ( 1 year follow up) –CAL, Probing depth, Distance between CEJ/ cervical crown margin and alveolar crest of the abutment teeth(radiograph). Results: Statistical analysis carried out by SPSSV22 software revealed significant changes in clinical and radiographic parameters from baseline and phase 1 to phase 4 with all the three types of materials with IPS empress proving to be better.(P<0.01).Conclusion:The response of the periodontal tissues to the various types of fixed prosthesis on endodontically treated abutment teeth with post and core was almost similar with slight variation.
