Abstract:
1310 three-unit resin-bonded bridges were examined for their failure rates. After five years 86% (+/- 4%) were still in situ. 64% (+/- 5%) didn't need rebonding. Significant prognostic factors were: preparation of abutments, surface treatment (net retention, silicoating), type of luting agent (Bis GMA) and mobility of the abutments.
