title: [Intra-oral restoration and correction of single- and multi-unit dental prostheses].
abstract: In cases of a fracture of the porcelain or non-aesthetic margin of a correctly functioning single- or multi-unit dental prosthesis, an intra-oral restoration or correction using a resin composite can generally be chosen. To establish adhesion to metal, porcelain, resin and composite, macro-mechanical, micromechanical and/or chemical retention methods are available. In order to achieve macro-mechanical retention, the preparation ofpits, grooves and/or undercuts is necessary. Micromechanical retention indicates surface roughening of the prosthodontic material at microscopic level through etching or sand-blasting. For chemical retention methods, special primers are used which may react chemically with the several prosthodontic materials. The treatment of choice is determined by the prosthodontic material and the feasibility of the retention method.
