Porcelain occlusal posterior fixed partial dentures

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1975
A method for using the functionally generated-path technique to fabricate full occlusal porcelain-fused-to-metal fixed partial dentures and crowns has been described. Proper use of this technique in carefully selected patients should eliminate occlusal adjustments and the concomitant polishing and glazing that are often necessary before the restoration

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1968
Abstract Preservation and restoration of the dentition should be based on sound biomechanical principles. To aid the dentist in general practice in formulating a complete and concise treatment plan, the following outline has been proposed: (1) eliminate all irritants; (2) eliminate all periodontal pathosis; (3) correct gingival deformities; (4) move ...

Nonrigid Connectors for Fixed Partial Dentures

The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1973
Because of physiologic tooth movement, arch position of the abutments, and the retentive capacity of the retainers, a nonrigid connector may be preferred in the fabrication of a five-unit pier-abutment fixed partial denture. In this prosthesis, the movement of the nonrigid connector is enough to prevent the middle abutment from serving as a fulcrum ...

Overdenture abutments for fixed partial dentures

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 2000
Despite universal acceptance for retaining endodontically treated and filled roots for vertical support of removable prostheses, there is little evidence for the use of overdenture abutments with fixed prostheses. This article presents a review of clinical situations for using these teeth to support fixed partial dentures.

[Resin-bonded fixed partial dentures].

Nederlands tijdschrift voor tandheelkunde, 2013
A resin-bonded fixed partial denture is a prosthetic construction which can replace I or several teeth in an occlusal system and which comprises a pontic element which is adhesively attached to 1 or more abutment teeth. To compensate for the limited shear strength of the adhesive layer, the Jixed partial denture is occlusally supported by the abutment ...
