Immediate tooth replacement using single-visit fiber reinforced resin composite bridge
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 7
Abstract
Rehabilitation of a missing anterior tooth poses a challenge for the clinician. A variety of therapeutic options from implants to conventional Maryland bridges can be used to address this challenge. However cost, time and preservation of natural tooth structure limits their use. Recently, Fiber reinforced composite resin bridges have been suggested as a good alternative to conventional prosthetic treatment when fixed, conservative, economical and immediate tooth replacement is desired. This article describes a case of immediate tooth replacement by single-visit fiber reinforced resin composite bridge using impregnated glass woven fiber (Interlig, Angelus, Brazil) to reinforce composite resin as pontic. The procedure was completed chair-side, thereby avoiding laboratory cost and time. Eight month follow-up has shown a successful treatment outcome with no evidence of problems.
