Replacement of a tooth with a fiber-reinforced direct bonded restoration.
Today's methods and materials for tooth replacement are multiple and varied. Modern materials now allow for highly conservative abutment preparations that can retain bonded single tooth replacement fixed prostheses. A case report is presented in which fiber reinforced with composite resin was used for placement of a three-unit fixed long-term provisional restoration, providing fracture resistance while achieving an esthetically pleasing, durable restoration.
