Fiber Reinforced Composite

Indications:

Suitable for the chairside reconstruction of endodontically treated teeth, because

of its radiopacity characteristic, that show extensive coronal damage.

To serve as structural components for various dental appliances such as

prosthodontic frameworks, retainers and splints.

For easy, reliable and aesthetic way to replace missing teeth.

A perfect choice when there is a need for transitional bridges, for example before

implantology, during the healing period of implantology or after trauma.

Adapted by hand to connect teeth together, reinforce cracked or undermined

teeth or support crowns and bridges.

Wide range indication for Bridges & Hybrid bridges • Implant-supported bridges •

Posts and cores • Crowns • Veneers:

1. Stick surface-retained bridge

2. Stick inlay bridge

3. Stick hybrid bridge

4. Stick implant-supported bridge

5. Crowns

6. Post and core crown

To reinforce composites for use in single restorations and smaller prosthodontic

rehabilitations, as well as orthodontic and periodontal splints.

1. Fibre Reinforced Composite as Periodontal Splint

2. Fibre Reinforced Composite as Orthodontic Anchoring

3. Repair of Veneer

4. Bonded Retainer after Orthodontic Therapy

Decreased Wear to Opposing Teeth

Contraindications:

Inability to Maintain Fluid Control

Need for Long Bridge Span

Patients with occlusal dysfunctions or parafunctions, such as bruxism, etc

Patients Who Abuse Alcohol

Patients who practice insufficient oral hygiene

Cantilever extension bridges

Short clinical crowns (<5mm)

Extensive defects of the clinical crown

Mobility of the abutment teeth

Loosening of teeth because of factors related to the periodontium

Existing therapy-resistant periodontopathologic complains as well as allergies to

the components of dentin adhesives or luting composites, therefore, must be

classified as absolute contraindications.

Presence of periodontal inflammation

Gingival bleeding could compromise the adhesive bond between the resin and

the prepared tooth.
