CLINICAL PERFORMANCE OF ADHESIVE BRIDGES

A clinical study of the effectiveness of prosthetics with adhesive bridge prostheses made by a direct method was conducted at various follow-up periods. Indications for the choice of specific means and methods for the restoration of dentition are given. On specific clinical examples, the technique for manufacturing adhesive bridges of various designs is described. The highest clinical efficacy after two and three years of use was demonstrated by adhesive structures made with additional preparation of the vertical walls of the retention cavities in the form of recesses and which were reinforced with fiberglass tape and a beam. The most common complications during the use of adhesive prostheses made by other methods were violations of the integrity and retention of the prostheses, as well as the marginal fit of the photocomposite.
