Clinical Evaluation of Resin-Bonded Bridges: a Retrospective Study Paul S Prosthodontics Clinical evaluation of resin-bonded bridges: a retrospective study Paul S. Olin* / Elaine M. E. Hill^ " / James L. Donahue* * * Eighty-five patients with a total of 103 resin-bonded bridges placed by practitioners at the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry between 1982 and ¡989 were recalled for a clinical evaluation of their restorations. Tissue condition, patient satisfaction, bridge failures by iocation and by sex of patient, and average length of service for both successful and failed bridges were recorded. After an average service of 3.25 years, 12.6% of the fixed partial dentures had debonded. Debondings occtirred most fre- quently in the mandibular arch. Failures occurred more frequently in men than in women, and prostheses with more than two retainers had twice the probability for problems. (Quintessence Int 1991:22:873-877.)

    A REVIEW ON RESIN BONDED PROSTHESIS Dr. Tanmay Biswas*, Dr. Anindita Majumder*, Dr. (Prof) T.K Giri**, Dr. (Prof) S. Mukharjee *** Abstract Resin bonded bridges are a minimally invasive option for replacing missing teeth. The minimal-preparation, resin retained adhesive bridge may be considered to be an ideal choice of fixed prosthesis to replace a single missing tooth, especially in the anterior region. Many dental practitioners do not use adhesive bridges because of concerns over high failure rates. This article highlights advantages, disadvantages, types of framework and bridge designs and clinical procedure which may improve outcome, with a special mention of all ceramic resin bonded bridges. Key Words Resin bonded bridges, adhesive bridge, bridge design, minimally invasive, all ceramic resin bonded bridges. INTRODUCTION Resin bonded or resin retained bridges (RBBs/RRBs) are minimally invasive fixed prostheses which rely on composite resin cements for retention. These restorations were first described in the 1970s and since this time they have evolved significantly. The first type of RBB was the Rochette Bridge, which relied on the retention generated by resin cement tags through a characteristic perforated metal retainer. However, longevity of this type of restoration was limited and in an effort to address this, methods of altering the surface of the metal retainer to enhance micromechanical retention were developed.2The term 'Maryland Bridge' resulted from the development of a type of electrochemical etching at the University of Maryland. More recently bridge retention has been enhanced by the development of resin cements which bond chemically to both the tooth surface and the metal alloy.

Dental health encompasses the likelihood of making healthy choices in relation to diet, smoking, tobacco, oral hygiene and utilization of dental health services.3 A rise in the use of sugary diet, especially bakery products and carbonated drinks increase prevalence of Dental caries. Making choices that support and care for your body everyday and making them part of your lifestyle will help you to have a healthy life and a healthy mouth. Unfortunately more and more people living busy lifestyles are relying on caffeine and sugar to keep them going and then turning to food and alcohol to help them relax. With modern technology and the need to get more done people are staying up later, not getting enough sleep or quality sleep and feeling exceedingly stressed on a daily basis. No amount of good oral hygiene practices can make up for the affects of poor lifestyle habits. This would be like thinking that you can stay up really late every night then thinking you can make up the lost sleep hours by sleeping late on the weekends. The damage has already been done. Balancing stress, diet/nutrition, sleep quality, hydration, tooth brushing and flossing are the keys to dental health. It has to be a total body package, aimed at achieving balance and harmony throughout the body as a whole.
