Abstract

The development of fiber-reinforced composites offers new possibilities in minimally invasive tooth replacement approaches. This article describes the use of a prefabricated fiber-reinforced composite resin framework for the chairside fabrication of a provisional fixed partial denture over an integrating implant. The framework fabrication, theory, and a clinical scenario are illustrated.
