Fiber Reinforced Composite Inlay - A Case Report.

Abstract

Demand for esthetic restorative materials has greatly increased. Reinforcement with fibers has been introduced since 1960, but the interest in use of this material is recent. Resins, when associated with reinforcement fibers, present properties which, depending on the clinical indication, approach ceramics. Restorations with very divergent proximal boxes make it difficult for correct adaptation of matrix and interproximal wedge, thus resulting in failure in the marginal adaptation. This technique of extra oral restoration allows for the optimization of the properties of the material, which can be reflected in a better final clinical performance of the restoration. The properties of the reinforcement fibers showed that its incorporation with composite resin increased its elastic modulus. It was demonstrated that use of fibers to reinforce resins generates high tensile strength and low shear strength, since they are materials with an elastic modulus similar to dentin. This article presents two case reports with a 6 month follow up where in fiber reinforced composite inlays were used to restore teeth with large carious lesions.
