Researchers have found in a new study that Direct composites are better than zirconia resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses for single missing anterior teeth as they have the advantage of being less invasive and can be restored in a single visit.
This study aimed to compare the outcome of a simplified direct composite resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses without reinforcing fibers (CR-RBFDP) and resin-bonded fixed dental prostheses using zirconia (Zr-RBFDP). The clinical records of five private practice dental clinics and one university hospital were analyzed. Failure was defined as a RBFDP that was removed or remade for any reason. Survival analyses were performed using log-rank tests.
