A zinc phosphate cement-luted and resin-luted fixed partial denture: a case report.
An innovative fixed partial denture design for restoring a posterior edentulous space is described. The distal retainer is conventionally luted with a zinc phosphate cement, and the mesial retainer is luted with a resin cement. Contingency planning, which involves placement of a nonrigid connector between the pontic and the distal retainer, allows recementation of the resin-luted segment if the resin bond fails.
