Prosthetic use of carbon fiber-reinforced epoxy resin for esthetic crowns and fixed partial dentures

Gingival Microleakage of Class II Resin Composite Restorations with Fiber Inserts

“…These products are meant to improve the mechanical properties of materials and provide extended applications for resin composites. [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] They have a wide range of applications, including orthodontic treatment, 31 such as splints for periodontally-involved teeth, [32][33] reinforcement for resin composites, 34 the fabrication of non-metallic endodontic posts, [35][36][37][38][39] reinforcement of denture bases [40][41][42][43][44] and reinforcement for non-metallic crowns and fixed partial dentures. [25][26][45][46][47][48][49][50][51] It has been reported that the embedding of fiber inserts into composites results in strengthening the restoration, particularly large ones, with improved fracture resistance.…”

Fiber Reinforced Composite Space Maintainers: Methods of Clinical Application: Case Report

“…Kevlar, carbon, glass, ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), and silane-treated glass have been used to provide fiber reinforcement. [5][6][7][8][9] Currently, the most popular fiber types are UHMWPE and glass. When used in dental fiberreinforcing materials, UHMWPE is typically woven into a fabric ribbon (Ribbond® Reinforcing Ribbon, Ribbond, Seattle, WA; and Connect™, Kerr, Orange, CA).…”

Fiber Reinforced Composite Bridge Applications in Anterior Tooth Deficiency: Two Case Reports

“…[1][2][3] FRC'ler, periodontal splintleme, geçici köprü yapımı, güç-lendirilmiş sabit köprü yapımı, protez tamiri ve endodontik olarak tedavi edilmiş dişleri güçlendirme işlemlerinde kullanılmaktadır. [4][5][6] Fiberler ayrıca, ortodontik tedavi sonrasında alt çene ön bölgede pekiştirme amaçlı olarak kullanılmasının yanı sıra maksiller diastema kapatma vakalarında geri dö-nüşümü önlemek için de kullanılmaktadırlar.…”
