3-Unit Bridge Antwerp

We can place you or metal/porcelain bridges or high standard zirconium/porcelain bridges , which are CAD CAM made.

We work with the latest CAD CAM shaped bridges in zirconium to guarantee you a perfect  functional  and esthetical bridge.

A resin retained bridge is a dental  replacing a missing  that relies for its retention on a composite resin cement. A Resin-bonded bridge consists of a cast metal framework that is cemented with resin composite to an abutment(s) which has preparation(s) confined either entirely or almost entirely to enamel. The resin retained bridge is a good treatment option for many missing teeth as it is relatively cheap when compared to alternatives such as , requires little or no damage to the surrounding teeth during preparation for placement, and it is well tolerated by patients. Typical success rates are quoted as being as high as 80% after 15 years in the anterior . Far lower success rates are seen in the posterior .Thus case selection is important. As with any dentistry, good  is paramount for success. One major advantage of the resin retained bridge over a conventional bridge is the failure mode is likely to be debonding of the retainer. In conventional  the failure mode is likely to be complete fracture of the abutment tooth with difficult-to-manage sequelae, possibly requiring . With a resin retained bridge the prosthesis can usually be cleaned off and rebonded in position with minimal inconvenience to the patient. The resin retained bridge has gone through a number of iterations. Perhaps the best known is the . Other designs used in the past include the  . The resin retained bridge requires a very specific set of design principles. The wing or retainer must be rigid and is usually fabricated from a  . The inner surface must fit closely to the  tooth. The  is treated in some way to enhance the micromechanical between the prosthesis and the composite resin cement. In the past various methods have been used, ranging from metal-weave patterns to tin plating.
