[Toward a more resistant resin, more economical and better suited to conditions in developing countries]

The breakage of prosthesis constructed in polymethacrylate resin is a reality in daily practice. Several solutions have been proposed to overcome this problem. Thus, the reinforcement of resin with carbon fibre improved greatly the mechanical properties, notably the fatigue strength. The technique of elaboration of such prosthesis proposed in this study has little impact on aesthetic as well as on the final cost. This proposition could be a relevant solution for third world countries opposite to economical and technological problems generated by cast metallic framework.
