Adhesive crowns and fixed partial dentures fabricated of ceromer/FRC: clinical and laboratory procedures.
Ceramic optimized polymer and fiber-reinforced composite materials represent a significant development in prosthetic dentistry. When utilized in conjunction with adhesive luting techniques, exceptionally conservative crown and bridge restorations may be achieved. This article discusses utilization of these materials in inlay and onlay restorations, as well as clinical and laboratory procedures for fabrication, preparation, and seating of adhesive crown and bridge restorations. The initial results of restorations utilizing these innovative materials are presented.
