Description:
The most common clinical complications associated
with resin bonded prostheses are identified along with methods of
minimizing or preventing them. Methods of managing the complications are
described when they do occur.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe the indications and limitations of resin bonded prostheses
- Identify the most common complications associated with resin bonded
prostheses
- Know the debond rate associated with resin bonded prostheses
- Discuss the diagnosis and treatment planning factors that affect
debonding
- Describe the tooth preparation features that reduce or eliminate
complications
- Identify the appropriate metal thicknesses required in frameworks
- Describe the methods used to retain resin cements to the metal
framework
- Discuss the appropriate cementation protocol
Abstract:
Knowledge of the factors that cause complications and failure in fixed
prosthodontics enhances our ability to develop effective treatment plans,
facilitates success, promotes optimal doctor-patient communication regarding
anticipated treatment outcomes and provides early diagnosis of problems
encountered during long-term maintenance. This presentation will identify the
most common complications encountered with resin bonded prostheses and describe
methods of minimizing or preventing their occurrence as well as managing the
complications when they occur.
