[Clinical observation of the 2-unit cantilever metal plate resin bonded fixed partial dentures]
1Department of Prosthodontics, Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology, Beijing 100081, China.
Objective:
To observe a short term effect of clinical application of the 2-unit metal plate resin bonded fixed partial dentures (RBFPDs).
Methods:
Sixteen patients were restored with the 2-unit cantilever metal plate RBFPDs during the period of 2005 to 2009. Retention and margin integrity of RBFPDs, and health condition of abutments were evaluated immediately after cementation and every 6-12 months period later.
Results:
A total of 20 RBFPDs were made for all 16 patients. The observation period vary from 15 months to 53 months. The mean observation period was 34 months. There were 1 RBFPDs debonded. The debonding rate was 5%.
Conclusion:
The 2-unit cantilever metal plate RBFPDs could achieve a favorable clinical outcome in the short term.
