A retrospective clinical study of resin-bonded cingulum rest seats.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the success of the resin-bonded cingulum rest seats (RBCRS) supporting removable partial dentures.


METHODS
Twenty-six patients who had been treated with RBCRSs were recalled and examined.


RESULTS
None of the patients who had RBCRSs placed on their teeth experienced debonding, and none of the teeth showed clinically significant signs of wear to the rest seats.


CONCLUSIONS
The use of RBCRSs to support removable partial dentures is a highly successful method of treatment.
