“…26 In preparing the acrylic tooth to be used in the splint, it should ideally be contoured for an ovate pontic configuration on the tooth intaglio surface facing the gingiva to allow the gingiva to heal around the ovate pontic, simulating the emergence profile of a natural tooth. 27 The wire is then secured with composite on the palatal/lingual surfaces while the interproximal area between the pontic tooth and the natural tooth is bonded together using composite. To keep the gingiva healthy, sufficient embrasure space ensures the patient can clean the interproximal area underneath the splint.…”

“…One or more lost or missing teeth can be functionally restored with the help of the commonly utilized single crown and FDP (bridge) treatment approach. There will always be conditions in which fixed prosthetics are necessary to replace lost teeth [ 1 ]. Due to the development of full-ceramic fixed partial denture (FPD) materials and their availability for clinical usage, all-ceramic FPDs are now often utilized in clinical dentistry.…”

Background: The objective of the study was to retrospectively assess the clinical performance of dental prostheses, single crowns, and three-unit bridges to identify clinical biological and mechanical complications in the Ha'il province of Saudi Arabia. Methods: The study was conducted between March 2021 to October 2021 and included 421 patients who underwent crown and tooth-supported fixed partial denture (FPD) procedures at the Dental Polyclinics Center in the Ha'il region of Saudi Arabia from 2010-2020. The planned sampling approach was applied. Patients who underwent crown and FPD placements at the dental center within the scheduled period were identified through clinical assessments. The inclusion criteria were met by patients with three-unit FPDs and a single crown containing a natural contralateral tooth or teeth. A total of six general dentists conducted clinical exams. Patient satisfaction and technical and biological issues were the evaluation criteria for crowns and FPDs. The frequency and percentage of the various characteristics employed in the current investigation were ascertained using cross-tabulation. The Chi-square test was employed to assess the associations between categorical variables, with p-values ≤ 0.05 considered significant. Results: Marginal integrity was recorded in 332 participants (78.9%), which was satisfactory for the majority of the restoration. The acceptance morphology was present in 252 (59.9%) restorations. The highest rate of the restorations 274 (66.2%) had satisfactory color. In 86 cases (20.4%), there was visible periodontal depth of at least 5 mm. Three hundred and six (72.7%) of the fixed restorations had gingival bleeding connected to them, and 96 (22.8%) teeth had periapical lesions. A total of 311 patients (73.9%) reported they were satisfied with their fixed restorations. Conclusions: The technical and biological complications noted in the current study were not higher compared with other studies of crowns and fixed dental prostheses. The majority of patients were satisfied with the restoration.
