A conservative treatment option for a single missing premolar using a partial veneered restoration with the SR Adoro system

Abstract

This report describes a step-by-step sequence for preparation for a posterior partial veneered restoration for a space closure using a Maryland bridge—design veneered with a heat-cured composite resin. The modality provides sound posterior occlusal function, combined with a psychological satisfaction to the patient of regaining a missing tooth. The preparation takes into account the design for resin-bonded prostheses. This article presents the preparation and build-up method for a metal reinforced posterior partial veneered restoration through a conservative palatal approach for a highly aesthetic result.

Maryland bridge as a minimally invasive treatment modality for missing anterior teeth: A case report

“…6,7 However, it also has certain disadvantages including its technique sensitive application and the tendency of the metal retainer to show through the thin anterior teeth. 8,9 Certain precautions like adequate sealing of the prosthesis and tooth surface margin is necessary for the prevention of caries. Gingival surface of the pontic should be highly glazed as well as should have passive tissue contact to ensure the maintenance of gingival health.…”

Methods of treatment of premolar agenesis: a literature review

“…However, it includes the preparation of the tooth surface which serves as an abutment and a careful planning of the restoration. The Maryland bridge is contraindicated, when the abutment tooth is damaged or has a large caries (52).…”

“…Wymagane jest jednak przygotowanie powierzchni zarówno zęba, jak i dobre zaplanowanie samego uzupełnienia. Most typu Maryland nie może być zastosowany, gdy zęby filarowe są uszkodzone lub ich znaczna część jest objęta procesem próchnicowym (52).…”
