title: Predictable resin-bonded bridges in general dental practice.
abstract: This paper discusses the use of resin-bonded bridges as predictable restorations in general dental practice. The importance and relevance of case selection is stressed. Efforts have been made to discuss ideal design features, creation of interocclusal space and the need to carry out any tooth preparations. In addition, the clinical stages involved are outlined and a brief comparison with conventional bridges and implant-retained prostheses made.
