Ortho-Prostho Management of Hypodontia Using FibreReinforced Composite Resin Bridge: An Interdisciplinary Approach
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 12
Abstract
Abstract: Hypodontia is the congenital absence of <6 teeth because of agenesis. The absence of teeth may be unilateral or bilateral. Several treatment options are indicated to treat hypodontia, including the maintenance of primary teeth or space redistribution for restorative treatment with partial adhesive bridges, tooth transplantation, and implants. However, an interdisciplinary approach is the most important requirement for the ideal treatment of hypodontia. This paper presented the work on a single abutment, single pontic cantilever fibre-reinforced composite bridge to replace bilaterally missing maxillary lateral incisors using Ceramage with glass fibres namely Fibrex Lab Pontic System which is incorporated as the fibre-reinforcement of the bridge frame. Indirect fabrication of this prosthesis in laboratory gives a better finish and aesthetic outcome than the direct technique in clinic
