Fixed partial dentures may provide an affordable, minimally invasive treatment that delivers reliable, long-lasting results, including high survival rates, according to a study recently published in the Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry.
However, treatment plans should be tailored to each patient’s habits and tooth location, the authors wrote.
The 14-year retrospective study sought to evaluate the long-term outcomes of DFRC-FPDs and factors affecting their survival and success.
Treatments involved either bonding to intact enamel or existing restorations, with all restorations reinforced by fiber splints, the authors wrote.
Multivariate analysis identified bruxism (p =.007) and extensive use of flowable composite as significant predictors of lower success, they wrote.
