title: The all-porcelain, resin-bonded bridge.
abstract: This case report describes the clinical and laboratory procedures for the fabrication and insertion of In-Ceram all-porcelain, resin-bonded bridges. All-porcelain crowns and fixed partial dentures have better biocompatibility and better esthetic results than do ceramometal restorations. In-Ceram has been shown to have better physical properties than other ceramic or glass materials. However, long-term clinical studies of the material are not yet available.
