Case report: a non-rigid connector for a resin bonded bridge
1Department of Restorative Dentistry, University Dental School and Hospital Cork, Wilton, Cork, Ireland.
Abstract:
The use of rigid connectors between pontics and retainers is common for conventional bridges. Restoration of two missing teeth and an intermediate pier abutment with a rigid bridge is not an ideal treatment. In this report a resin bonded bridge with a non-rigid connector within the pontic distal to the pier abutment was constructed and remained in place without debonding for seven years.
