  • Title: Clinical considerations in case selection for all-ceramic fixed partial dentures.
    Author: Raigrodski AJ, Saltzer AM.
    Journal: Pract Proced Aesthet Dent; 2002; 14(5):411-9; quiz 420. PubMed ID: 12134394.
    Abstract:
    All-ceramic systems have been utilized for fixed partial dentures (FPDs) to replace a missing tooth since the early 1990s. Clinical studies that assess the long-term outcome of both anterior and posterior three-unit all-ceramic FPDs are required to determine whether they can serve as a viable treatment option for functional and aesthetic tooth replacement. This article discusses the evolution and development of all-ceramic systems for FPDs as well as the clinical and laboratory considerations for treating patients using these restorations.
