Rehabilitation of Anterior Missing Teeth with aFibre-Reinforced Adhesive Bridge in Paediatric Patients: Case Series
Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Oral and Dental Research - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Abstract:In the early period, tooth loss may occur for congenital reasons or because of trauma or decay. Different treatment alternatives for aesthetic rehabilitaton of tooth loss include removable partial prosthesis, fixed prosthesis, dental implant and partial prosthesis fixed with resin (Maryland bridge). As fibre-reinforced composites (FRC) are materials which do not include any metal, the mechanical and aesthetic properties are extremely good. Our aim in this study is to rehabilitate with FRC tooth loss in the paediatric patients who are still developing and growing. In this 5 case series of paediatric patients, it was provided to aesthetic and functional rehabilitation of anterior tooth loss with a fibre-reinforced adhesive bridge applied with a minimally invasive technique which did not require any extra sessions. And it was presented a 1-year-follow up. Fibre-reinforced adhesive bridge can be considered an inexpensive, conservative, aeesthetic treatment alternative which can be applied in a single session for single or multiple missing teeth in the anterior region of young patients who have not yet completed skeletal and dentoalveolar growth and development. Keywords:Fibre-reinforced composites, missing teeth.
